ATTENTION "JUNIOR/SOPH!": WOW! What a performance Friday Night-I was sitting on the edge of my seat from the second you appeared on stage. I was thrilled to see so many of my students displaying their "awesome" talents-singing-acting-dancing...Thank you! Regardless of the "judges'" decision, you are the "winner" in my heart...in my heart you are the "winner"... (Name that rhetorical device)

PLEASE NOTE: According to a directive, tests scheduled for Thursday and Friday of this week must be "put-on hold". Hence, a CITR evaluation will not be administered. However, you will write an "essay" -HINT: It is related to the poster displayed on the bulletin board in the front of the classroom.
