3rd Nine Weeks

**NEW Progress Reports will go out Monday and Tuesday with all updated assignments (those who are not currently passing will be required to have reports signed.) If I do not receive these reports back signed I will contact parents**

Dear Parents and Students,

As progress reports are being issues I want to leave some careful reminders here about your grades so far. Please be informed that the Vocabulary quiz and Essay # 3 grades are not on the reports yet. If these two items were completed they should help to bring up some of those missed grades. Also, an assignment log will be present in the classroom today. This log will have ALL assignments posted so far. Assignments that can be made up for half credit are marked and, as always, if you are absent please check the log the next time you are in my class to make up any missed work.

As we struggle through the second half of the year, please be warned that missing work will result in a lower grade. Students who do not complete assignments will not be excused due to simply choosing not to do the assignments. Please be warned that grade recovery is not for students who do nothing in class. We reserve this privilege for those students who are struggling with the material. As always, if you have any questions please email me. I am happy to address any issue.

Students, please do not email me with requests to walk you through assignments that you were here for. This is an insult and such emails will not be answered. Use the assignment log in class and your peers. Of course this does not apply to those who were absent.
