Progress reports are sent home to EVERYONE every 4-5 weeks! They are to be signed and returned to me. Unsigned reports get a 0/10 points.
Progress report dates for this year are weeks of September 15, November 17, February 18, and April 20.
Available for after school help until 4:00 most days, later by appointment.
