Hello All,
This week is pretty busy as we're finishing our research and students are moving towards compiling their research into an interesting, entertaining presentation for their peers. Instructions for the project, and the pointers and reminders and how to's I've put together and have been talking about in class, are on the blog.
Honors students are completing this research project outside of class at this point while we read Oedipus the King in class. You can find a complete text of it on the Resources Page if you need to catch up. The test is planned for next Wednesday.
This Friday the final Progress Reports of the semester will be sent home with your student.
Next week's schedule is going to be ... interesting.
On either Monday or Wednesday your child will be participating in the mandatory Vision screening. No, we don't have that schedule yet.
On Tuesday, Election Day, there will be no school. Please plan accordingly and help your student work on whatever they need to work on to be on top of these last 6 weeks of the semester.
On Thursday, all 10th graders will be getting a lesson from the Counseling Department about many topics, including their Capstone Project, which is the next assignment we plan to complete. It is very important your child is present in 1st period, on time, for this information.
On Wednesday, we'll be starting our Human Rights Presentations. The elements of the presentation are due on Turnitin.com by Sunday night so that they can use Monday and Tuesday as time to perfect and practice their delivery of the presentation.
We'll adapt the schedule as necessary, but the due date is Sunday.
Happy Thursday!
