*****NOTE TO PARENTS:
I have found that TIME MANAGEMENT is the student's best friend. It is imperative that your child includes proper TIME MANAGEMENT SKILLS into their learning strategies. Poor time management is the biggest factor in student failure. Please encourage your child to use time management and study skills during the course of not only this class, but all their classes.
PLEASE CHECK THIS WEBPAGE FOR UPCOMING TESTS, QUIZZES AND OTHER DETAILS PERTAINING TO HEALTH!
