HMS 7th-graders spotlight global challenges with editorials
Zachary D'Amico
Hampton Middle School students are making their voices heard by tackling global challenges through an editorial project.
In the "Be the Change" interdisciplinary unit, 7th-grade students explored the importance of attention and empathy in addressing global issues. In Mrs. Catherine Close's and Mr. Stephen Adametz's 7th-grade English classes, students wrote editorials focused on a global challenge of their choosing. They delved into the background of these issues and conducted research during their history classes to inform their perspectives.
This year, 10 students had their editorials selected by their teachers for publication on the HTSD website.
