Greetings,

Please make sure you are keeping up with your assignments.  I will not be accepting any late work this marking period, unless you have an absence.  If you are not clear about our school policy regarding late work, then please consult your student handbook.  I hope you have a wonderful week!  By the end of the week, we will have less than 35 days left.  If you are planning to contribute to the end of the year events, please send a check to the front office.  Any donations that you can give will be greatly appreciated!  The funds go toward helping to make sure our 8th graders have a nice celebration at the end of the year.
