Please be informed that I received a memo on Friday afternoon (11/9) that the College Now representatives would visit our classes on Tuesday (11/13). You will still take the SAT Vocabulary Quiz (List 7-seven words/List 6-three words)

Sunday, November 4, 2012

ATTENTION: If you arrive early to school early on Monday, you are welcome to visit me in Room 404 to use the computers. Since many of you know I usually stay late, you are welcome to do the same-if necessary-I will open up Room 402-the computer room. Please spread the word since many of your classmates may not have electricity and/or access to a computer.

Please be advised that I have cancelled the SAT Vocabulary Quiz for Friday.

Schedule for the Week of 22 October

NOTE: Since not all classes will meet on Friday, we will NOT have our weekly SAT Vocabulary Quiz. Sorry, to disappoint you.

Please return The Crucible on Monday, 22 October and on Tuesday, 23 October.

We will work on "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God". A sermon introduced in all American Literature classes throughout the USA. You will certainly read/listen to it again in an American Literature class in college. The subsequent assignment will involve a small group presentation to the whole-class-all group members will participate.

Our next reading selection: TBA
Dear Parents: On Thursday, your child will receive a report cart at the end of B-Band. Please be advised that the "letter-grade" indicated will not reflect an accurate "grade" since grades were not "rounded-up" to the nearest whole-grade. However, if you visit the school's on line-grading report (jupitergrades.com) you will discover your child's "actual" numerical grade for the first-marking period. This numerical grade WILL be averaged with the grade your child earns for the second-marking period. If you do not have your OWN password (not your child's), please contact the LMGHS Parent Coordinator. When we meet this week, I will give you a print-out for grades and assignments your child completed this marking-period.
