Dear Parents and Students,
PLEASE be aware that grades will not be 100% current until after Spring Break.
I know that many of you are working at getting all caught up and I appreciate that! I will have some time during lunch tomorrow (11-11:30) as well as during LA classes to try and let you know what you are missing but I have a huge box of papers that I will not be able to get to until after Spring Break.
Thank you for your many kind words of support as I am still on the road to recovery but not close to being where I need to be.
Thank you for your patience and I will truly do my best to have ALL work graded and recorded before the end of 3rd Quarter (April 9th) and certainly before the next Monthly report (April 16th).
Again, thank you very much and I plan on seeing everyone tomorrow in class.
Mrs. Davis

Calendar Changes
Dear students and parents,
Due to me being out next week I have changed a few due dates:
HS Language Arts Essay will not be due until Monday, March 22nd. They do need to bring it EVERYDAY to class though as I will be monitoring their progress~! Those that need to email it can email it to themselves and then print it out in the computer lab before class!
MS Autobiography will not be due until Monday, March 22nd as well. Same thing as the High Schoolers...Bring it to class EVERYDAY so all questions can be answered by the substitute.
Psychology quiz for Chapter 3 will be open book but I do expect the kids to work hard at studying it as it will be timed so we can correct it in class!
Please if you have any questions please be aware that the fastest way to get an answer just may be calling the office at 943-7340 as I am not promising that I will even check my email next week. But I don't want anyone to panic...just work through the assigned topic and I am sure you will be good to go!
One last thing...High School testing is next week. ALL 10-12th graders who plan on earning a Washington State Diploma or a Richland School District diploma are REQUIRED to take the HSPE next week for Writing and Reading. This is key as there are other options that may be available but this will be the most convienent for 99.9% of you! Please contact Alice if you have any questions as to whether your student needs to take the test.
The test will begin Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 7:45 in my classroom.
Have a great week and know that I will be thinking about each and everyone of you even if I am not there!!

Welcome to March
Now that we are just around the corner from Spring Break I wanted to make sure we are all on the same page!
WINGS is updated with not only what grades students have earned from February but also all their assignments for March! This hopefully will help everyone out in planning their schoolwork.
All the students were able to get their calendars and I gave them all the handouts they will need for the month as well!
Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help out!
