13.5 Progress Reports

11/9/2018

0 Comments

 
Parents,

All work should be completed and entered (minus the Learning Menu since it was just completed) by Monday, 11/2 at 6:00 PM.  I will be sending home Remediation Packets next week so you know what is missing, etc.  An extra credit packet will be available over Thanksgiving Break. 

I will not be at Saturday School tomorrow because I'm taking the IB Juniors to Kennesaw Mountain for our Civil War unit.  If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to email me.

Remember, late work is always graded last so please be patient.

Thank you for all you do!
