No, Pluto is not a planet.
It's actually a big mass of Ice and rock.
It's safer to go with eight because if your teacher marks it wrong. Just tell Him/Her that it isn't a planet anymore, therefore you wrote eight planets.

As far as I'm concerned Pluto is still a planet. I'm not about to let some stodgy old closet queen tell me how to perceive the solar system.

It is not a planet any more officially.
But Pluto is good enough in my mind and heart, and it will always be a planet to me, lol.
