On October 22, Howitt Middle School eighth-grade students traveled to Farmingdale High School for their Bridging to High School day.This trip is key to preparing them for the move next year. During the visit, the students have the opportunity to meet the high school administrative team. They took a tour of the building, seeing classrooms and labs that will be their environment soon. Students also learned about the classes and clubs they can join. This experience helps students understand the next step in their educational journey and plan their schedule.

Howitt Middle School librarians and the social studies department turned content and skill review into an adventure!

To help sixth graders prepare for their upcoming unit test, they created an exciting Escape Room Challenge. Working in teams, students raced against the clock to solve puzzles, answer questions, and interpret maps — all while reinforcing key concepts from their lessons. The activity made learning fun while building teamwork, critical thinking, and confidence ahead of their unit test!
