Progress Reports

There was a problem with the original progress reports. The grades for Critical Thinking probably did not appear on the progress reports. The school will issue new progress reports this afternoon. Today, I will start giving progress reports to all of my students listing all of their grades in my class.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

=o) B-day students.

I appreciate that the vast majority of you were very well behaved for the substitute on Thursday. If the majority of students need time to finish the writing assignment, I will give you some time on Wednesday to finish it.

B-Day classes,
Unfortunately I have to attend a training on Thursday (9/17). I found out about my training right after Open House was over. So, we won't be able to have our Shared Inquiry Discussion until Monday. Remember to be leaders while I'm not here.
