The week of October 31st...

All Stars, Welcome to the Second Quarter! We are quickly approaching the halfway mark of the school year and I am very pleased with the effort and commitment to learning mathematics. Wow, your guys get it done!

Please get your assignments done and submit them on time. This will include Compass Odyssey and the Gizmo assignments. Ensure you include the Exploration Guide and Assessment questions. Some of you are doing only half of the assignment, a few students are not doing them at all. Please ensure you are completing both, the Exploration Guide and Assessment questions by the due dates. Parents, please help with this. Check with your learner to ensure these weekly assignments are completed before Monday of each week. Thank you, your support is greatly appreciated!



Students, Please note the change in the second quarter, "late work" will not be accepted. Ensure assignments are submitted by the due date, thank you.

Intensive Math 6th Grade: (Team Time Group)

Parents: We have begun using "Agile Mind", a software driven resource that allows each student to maximize their learning potential. Your learner has a login and password that allows them to track their progress and advance their learning at home and school. Please encourage them to do at least 30min at home weekly. We are off to an amazing start, their efforts are commendable and I expect the results to be favorable. Thank you!
