First, my apologies for not posting a blog for the last two weeks. There has been a technical issue with my blog and I have not been able to post anything. If you're reading this, it must have worked.
Several folks have asked about the number of grades posted in PowerSchool this trimester. This trimester there are fewer vocab assignments (we're actually done for the year), more combined assignments with Social Studies and more projects. Therefore, there are fewer grades in PowerSchool. The flip side of that is that any late or missing work could have a greater impact on final grades. Grades still to be posted include The Outsiders projects and The Outsiders Study Guides.
