    You are halfway there! The quarter is coming to end tomorrow, which means all assignments are due. I would like to remind you that anything that is more than 72 hours late may only score a 59% or lower. If you handed in an assignment you may redo that assignment for a grade up to a 100 as long as you handed the assignment in on time to begin with.
    Today I would you to finish your midterms, go over your progress reports and redo or makeup necessary work and then click the newspaper lesson and begin. If you finish all of that you may have SSR time.
    *Newspaper assignment uses your journals from basketball.
    Good luck!
