Notice to Students and Parents

With getting the SMART board wired in our classroom, we are still waiting on one connector to have the system complete. As such, I have access to the board, but not my monitor. This makes it more cumbersome to update the blog site with homework. The connector has been ordered and is on its way. Once we have received and installed it, the blog should be easy to keep updated every day. In the meantime, students should work with their study buddy on days when the site has not yet been updated. Thank you for your patience.
