Mrs. Fanning
It has been brought to our attention that there is a virus being sent as an attachment through MS Office systems. If you are sending any emails to us, we can only open them if there is a clear subject message. We don't know everyone's email address, some are pretty hard to decifer. Sorry, but this extra step is needed if you are waiting for a response from us. Thanks.
Just a reminder to all about homework. Homework is to be completed the night it is assigned. There are no "make-ups" from Term 3 onward on the Green Team. If an assignment is missed, a grade of zero will be recorded. If you are absent, assignments should be made up within 1 day of your return. Extended absences should be discussed with the individual teacher. Please make the move toward a highly successful Term 3 by completing assignments on time and therefore, achieving greater understanding of all concepts.
First... everyone should start looking for their issued Math books if you signed one out at the beginning of the year. There is a $58.00 replacement charge for lost/damaged books. They will begin to be collected next Friday (6/19). Next... the final Binder Quiz is on Friday 6/19. This is a great opportunity to boost your test/quiz average. Finally... the 7th grade will have LOCKER CLEAN OUT on Friday 6/19. We can only recycle cardboard & paper, so all supplies and binders will be going home.
