February 8 to 11

"These plans are based on the best prediction of what we hope to accomplish for this week. Please note, that these plans will vary from time to time because of various interruptions (fire drills, assemblies, etc.) and that we want to make sure students master material, before we move on to new concepts."

Note: Second period students will have finished their action plans with regard to the RIT reports given to them last week. These will be reviewed and signed by me. Parents will be able to see these and ask questions during the Advisory Student Presentations.
