Class Constitution!

     The eighth grade has been busy learning how to organize their rules and regulations, and students have worked hard to create an official Constitution for their class.  These are all the rules, subject to the school handbook, that exist in our classroom.

     Everyone did a fantastic job creating and organizing this Constitution; ratification took place today.  You should all be very proud!




We the Students of Helen S Dunn School Class of 2014, in order to keep discipline in the classroom, establish justice, ensure school-wide tranquility, provide for common protection from unequal treatment, promote the general welfare of the students and teachers, and secure the freedoms which we deserve, do ordain and establish this
