*Progress Reports*

posted Oct 24, 2011 6:17 AM by Cortney Elrod

Second six-weeks is wrapping up, and we did not send out progress reports this time due to Parent Portal. If you have not gotten your username and password to view grades, you need to do so. Also, if you do not have internet access, you can request a progress report. Six-week tests begin next week! The English test is next Tuesday, November 1. Good luck! :)

*First six-weeks down, Five more to go*

The first six weeks of school flew by! We have now begun second six-weeks. Most of the students worked really hard, and others know what they need to do this time around. I am looking forward to a busy, productive six weeks. We are finishing our second narrative, and we are getting ready to start Unit 10:Verbs. :)

*Ready or Not....Here it Comes!* School's Back!

Summer went by very quickly! It is that time again....time to start a new school year. I look forward to a new, exciting school year! I hope each of you are energized and ready to begin this new school year. There is a lot to be done, but I have faith that you all are ready for the tasks that are ahead. I know that each of you can do your very best! I hope you have a great year full of many wonderful memories! Good luck!

*Last Six-Weeks*

posted Apr 26, 2011 7:06 AM by Cortney Elrod

I can't believe this school year is coming to an end. We only have three weeks until exams begin. The only things we have left in my class are finishing the reasearch project and diagramming sentences. Please make sure that you do not get behind on your project because it counts for a few test grades. Study, study, study for all of your classes because this is it, and you will be off to high school! Good luck! :)
