All students should now have a textbook to use at home.  Be aware that these textbooks are very expensive and they must last us a long time.  Therefore, please be careful with the textbooks.  Do not write in them and keep them in "new" condition!

Marking Period 3

posted Feb 9, 2009 12:14 PM by Alex Wood

Today is the start of our third marking period.  We still have half of the school year left.  If your grades weren't as high as you would have like them to be in MP1 and MP2 this is a great chance to tun them around.  At the beginning of a marking period, everybody has an "A+".  It is your job to keep it!
