Almost There - End of 2nd Quarter is Nigh
If you have any unfinished work, tests, quizzes, or homework, now is the best time to get everything done. Just think, if you finish everything before you go on Christmas Break, you won't wake up in the middle of the night panicking about things that you don't have finished during a time when you would rather not panic and would rather sleep in, undisturbed. Just a thought.
And for those of you who like to be extra prepared and ready, please enjoy the exam schedule below:
Thank You

If you would still like to be a part of this project, the last day to give is tomorrow, December 15th.
