6th Grade Experiences (2014-2015)

Going into 6th grade was nerve wracking because i was going in from elementary school to junior high school. This was a pretty big deal for me but at the same time I thought i was getting older and i wanted to be older so badly. 6th grade was one of the best years but sadly went by too fast.

My 6 grade experiences go beyond amazing. I met 4 of my closest friends that have been here for me throughout the school years. 6 grade was everything a 6 grader can imagine when entering a new school being , an older student , having more freedom, having more responsibilities as well as having fun.

I remember the first day of school being overwhelmed by the new faces and the idea of having to turn a new chapter in life. This was the first of may good 6th grade memories. One of the many fond memories was the Bronx zoo trip the school went on. I remember how much fun I had on that trip and all the new people I met and it took a great amount of anxiety off my chest knowing now that the people I went on the trip with would be my friends throughout three years.

7th Grade Experiences (2015-2016)

Seventh grade was a breeze. This was the year where I gained more freedom and more responsibility. This was also the year where i met all of my friends from different schools. In this year I got to take the bus, hangout more often and had to work hard and get my grades up because this is the year where high school mainly looked at grades. Even Though, 7th grade was a bit stressful and awkward it was fun and I will never forget this year.

7 th grade was an interesting year being that I was put in a classroom separated from most of my friends. Even though, I wasn't with my friends i was able to meet new people and create more friendships. Besides, it was the year I gained more freedom and the year I had to become more strict with my grades and bump them up. I liked 7th grade, I acknowledged almost all of the mistakes I had done in 6th grade and grew as from those mistakes to become better as an individual.

Seventh grade was different from all other grades here I was separated from all my original friend and put in a new class leaving me to meet new people and create new memories. I was nervous because all of the teacher said that seventh-grade was the most important greed out of all of middle school this put pressure on me especially because I wanted to make it into a good high school to help me excel in life.

8th Grade Experiences (2016-2017)

Eighth grade has been fun. So many great and funny memories were made. Between Tequila sunrise and dissecting a pig was one of the most memorable moments of eighth grade. Yet it was a little stressful since I had to pick which school I will attend to for the next four years. Despite that, it has been a blast. But sadly it is coming to an end and we are all going our separate ways but I know that all of my friends are still going to be close and we will still have eachothers back no matter what. Being a BELL Bulldog is like being a part of a big family.

-Brianna Andujar

So far eighth grade has been a year of hard work with very fun task like the dissection of a pig. Even with so much work being done because of regents I have managed to have a lot of fun,continuing to grow from previous mistakes, being more mature, having more freedom,and learning to find time for everything. It's a very exciting,fun year since I am a senior going to highschool and having so much fun events and being able to bond with everyone in the last couple of months that are left.

-Valentina Carpino

This was the final step in nibble school this year I knew everyone in the school which helped me not be nervous. Eighth grade was very fun,it was filled with inside jokes and many good laughs.If I had to sum up eighth grade in one word it would be amazing.
