Welcome to Ms. Petlak's homepage!
Dear Parents,
Junior parents, please speak with your student regarding how they would like to prepare for the ACT. There are various test prep courses students can take to prepare themselves for the test. Please speak with Mrs. Kirkpatrick regarding how to sign up for those courses. Additionally, students can practice for the test for FREE at www.ACT.org.
MULTIPLE STUDENTS ARE NOT READING THE HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTS. THEREFORE, THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO DISCUSS THE TEXT IN CLASS AND DO NOT PERFORM WELL ON READING QUIZZES. PARENTS, PLEASE ENCOURAGE YOUR STUDENT TO COMPLETE THE READING SELECTIONS THAT ARE ASSIGNED FOR HOMEWORK.
To all parents, I will try my best to update grades weekly. It does take an extended amount of time to grade essays. However, I will quickly update homework, quiz, and tests grades. Thank you for your patience.
Thank you.
- Ms. Petlak
