Hello and Welcome!
This website will provide links to important resources to be used in class and for homework assignments, as well as providing information regarding recent and upcoming quizzes and tests. Additionally, homework assignments for the week and important upcoming events will be posted here as well - students are reminded that "real time" updates occur on the whiteboard in class and should be recorded in their agenda books - the homework postings here are to be used as an emergency backup, as well as a resource for parents to see what each week in science will entail.
***Please note that I am available for after school help nearly every Tuesday and Wednesday - students should check with me at least a day in advance to verify my availability. I will also reserve Thursday mornings from 7:00 - 7:40 for the purpose of quiz/test make-up sessions. ***
***Below the homework section (which immediately follows), you will find a listing of when quizzes and tests were given, the date that scores were made available, and the date that they were sent home to be signed by parent(s)/guardian(s). Please monitor these listings periodically, and send along an email detailing any questions and/or concerns you may have.***
Each week, I will post weekly homework assignments here - feel free to email me at any time if you have any questions or need clarifications. Please check back frequently - updates will be posted as new assignments occur.
