Mr. O’Neal, an 8th grade teacher at Waggoner Road Junior High is taking some students one the annual 8th grade trip to Washington D.C. This year, Mr. O’Neal and Mr. Carpenter are going to use Twitter with some 8th grade students to keep us updated on what they’re doing on the trip. The 8th graders are also going to answer questions that we ask.

Post your questions that you would like answered by our 8th graders while they are on their trip to Washington D.C. The 8th graders will try to answer those questions for us while on their trip.
