Open shifts by grade

7th Grade

  • 7th Grade Book Bowl — Ms. McClean is in need of adult volunteers to coach our 7th grade Book Bowl teams! She wasn't sure if she would host one again this year, but once she promoted it she had 32 students sign up! This means 4 teams of 8 students each, so she will need 4 coaches. The time commitment is one day a week (the day of your choosing) during advisory time (8:15–8:40) from the week of October 5th through December 7th. All materials will be provided for the adult to coach the team and run the weekly discussion meetings. The only outside ask is that they read the three books as part of the Book Bowl. If you are able to help, please email her directly at mcleank@aaps.k12.mi.us
