Pickering activities include:

The History Project

Students will develop projects with the goals of identifying and cataloguing historical evidence of the City of Lynn. The Project's goal is to support historic preservation, document Lynn's history, and teach students the principles of urban archeology. Students will also learn how to create a Power Point presentation, various media productions and presenting to community and school groups. Students will have the opportunity to attend field trips in order to learn primary and secondary research techniques.

Yearbook Club

The Pickering Yearbook Club is now going into its fifth year here at Pickering Middle School. Members are meeting periodically to organize the pages of this year's book, which is coming along great!. This year is the first time it will be printed to full color. All of the student's pictures, class pictures, sports, clubs and clusters will be in color, and the members are getting excited to see it all come together. We are trying to take several pictures during the year of different events and class school projects going on so many of the students will have a chance to see their pictures in the yearbook. The Yearbook Club members usually meet on Tuesdays after school in Room 114. If you are still interested in becoming a member, you are welcomed to come in and join us, as the members are few, but dedicated, loyal and doing a great job. So drop by and join us!! The sales campaign is going on now. Two hundred, fifty books are ordered each year. They go on sale now, but are not given to the students until the end of the school year. I can't wait to see it!!

Every year Pickering competes with other junior high schools in mock trial competition. The preparation for trial is a great opportunity to learn the intricacies of the law. Through careful study of affadavits students discover ways to win over their opponents. The skills developed go a long way toward helping students to build strategies for success in any challenge they take on as well as present themselves speaking on their feet when it counts.
The Mock Trial Team is supervised by Ms. Coman
