August 24-28

 We survived our first full week of classes. Hooray!

This week we will be taking our GATES exam on Tuesday and Wednesday. Wednesday's test is on Vocabulary and is rather short, so we will focus on other materials after. This test is a state exam and is mandatory. If a student is absent, they must make up the test which I am more than happy to coordinate. 

All students will receive QUILL assignments this week. They are due by Friday. Please make sure your student has completed by the assigned date for credit (the 28th) in order to not receive a test grade of zero.

HONORS-Field trip to the Warbird Museum has been moved to October 21st. We leave at 9:50 a.m. and will return by lunchtime. 

I hope all of you have a great week.
