Attendence and Grading

Hello All!

On Monday I will be sending home a required Attendence Report.  This must be signed and returned by Tuesday.  Parents, please be expecting that your student will have this report for you.

I will be in an area over the weekend that doesn't have internet, so while I'll be grading a ton of things this weekend, grades won't be updated until I get back starting Monday.  Thank you for your understanding.
Only 5 more days until Thanksgiving Vacation!  Make sure you're keeping up with the deadlines!

Student Conferences

This week I sat down and had mini-conferences with each student who was present on Thursday and Friday.  We talked, again, about how the last day for any late work will be Monday, November 7th.  We talked about getting work in, and making sure communication is open between school and home.  Most students have turned in the Progress Report I sent home on Wednesday.   

If you feel you'd like a more official conference, please email me at kimberly dot bundschu at cobbk12 dot org and we can arrange it.  If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email me as well.

Unexcused Tardies

As per Wheeler policy, students who earn 5 unexcused tardies will receive a referral to administration, with a subsequent referral for every 3 unexcused tardies after.

Please keep up to date with attendence via Pinnacle.  Students who already have 5 or more tardies should expect a referral.

12 Week Progress Report

The next official Progress Report will be sent home next Wednesday.  As of today, I have finished grading all of the work that will appear on the Progress Report, including all makeup work turned in to me by October 31st.

Therefore, the grade in Pinnacle is the grade that will appear on your Progress Report.  I will pass out an unofficial Progress Report to be signed and returned by Friday tomorrow.  This unofficial progress report will list all of the assignments thus far, except for today's test (American Lit) and the Giant Research Paper. 

As previously stated, the final day to turn in any makeup work is Monday, November 7th.

Missing Assignment Report

Hello All!

Students were sent home with a Missing Assignment Report today, detailing everything they just haven't turned in.  Unless it's a reading log or the summer reading essay, they are allowed to turn in everything late, for a penalty.  A grade that is reduced due to tardiness is so much better than a zero.

As I said at the beginning of the year, if you do the work, follow the directions and do the work, you will pass.  If you don't, you can't.

I'm looking forward to a lot of late submissions, and a bunch of future work that is turned in on time.

(If you are one of the students who is actually doing their work, and turning it in on time, thank you.  You are awesome.)

AL Crucible Act I discussion

Hello 11th Graders!

Due to the overwhelming results of the Crucible Act I test we had on Wednesday, we did 2 in-class make up activities to add to your test grade.  If you were absent on Thursday, September 15th, then you need to arrange a time to make up this discussion and assignment with me, in person.  This makeup assignment should greatly improve your grade for that test, so please contact me about arranging a time as soon as possible. 

I do already have a student coming in to make up this assignment on Monday, September 19th, at 7:30am, and you are welcome to join her--the more the merrier.

Progress Reports

Hello parents and guardians,

Official Reports cards are coming home in just two weeks!  So that you are not surprised by the official report card, I'm sending home unofficial progress reports to all of my students tomorrow. 

Please look over the grades and talk with your student about their progress and study habits this year.

Dress Code Update

Hello all!

By now you've had plenty of time to puruse your Student Handbook, and have been made aware of the dress code changes found on page 34.  It is expected that all students will maintain appropriate dress at school and in the classroom. 

As per Wheeler Administration, students to are in my class and out of dress code will recieve administrative referrals. 

Have a wonderful day.
