Blog Continued… My blog is updated almost every school
day; however, if the Internet is down or if I am out of school, then it might not be updated.
I do post important reminders and due dates, and when possible, I give some homework details.
Also, I have the syllabus for the grading period and the online textbook directions linked for your convenience.

Homework Policies Homework counts for 10% of the overall
grade. Homework helps reinforce the concepts
taught in class & after the first nine weeks homework must be completed by the due date to earn credit.
Homework will be given almost every night. Homework is sometimes graded as an
accuracy grade, sometimes as a completion grade, but most of the time it is a combination of accuracy and completion.

Pinnacle I do my very best to update grades
weekly. Please check Pinnacle frequently (or have
your child check) to make sure you know how your child is progressing in class.
I try to post comments if a student has to make up an assignment due to an absence or if an assignment was partially completed.

Advanced Math 6 Requirements Please remember your child needs to
meet specific criteria to remain in the advanced math track… Must earn 80% or greater in math class Must EXCEED on the CRCT in April. This means
the students must earn 850 or greater on the test. If you purchased a COACH workbook for your child, this will be a great study tool and resource for your child to prepare for the test.
