Two days of freedom

Hello all...
Welcome to another weekend - two days of freedom from schoolwork.
Homework for today

• There is no official homework assigned for Monday. That being so, students are reminded that the cutoff for re-do assignments for this reporting period will be Wednesday, April 13. Anyone who is looking to improve his/her grades from the interim report should consider taking advantage of this opportunity.

Reminder
I will be out of the classroom Monday, April 11 and Tuesday, April 12 for professional development. I trust you will all be on your best behavior and I will receive a positive report from your substitute teacher.
Have a great weekend!
