We
hope everyone had a restful, happy holiday.
This
quarter is over next week so we will spend this week helping
students take care of those missing assignments due to absences
and other reasons. We
would like to encourage students to check
their grades through Learning Point to make sure everything is
correct. Wednesday, January 18th
will be the last day we will be able
accept missing and late assignments.
