Have a productive and amazing week, everyone!

Thanksgiving Week!

Is it going to be a short week everyone! Take this time to reconnect with family and friends. Rejuvenate your soul as we say goodbye to November and onto the bustle of December and the holidays. Growing up in the Philippines, we didn't have Thanksgiving so the concept is somewhat foreign to me. After talking to several credible people and doing some research, my takeaway from Thanksgiving is the pureness of the first meal the pilgrims and the natives shared. Whether the historical recollection is accurate or not, I would like to believe that these two groups of people gathered together in a spirit of peace and gratitude. As you gather with your friends and families, or strangers, I hope that you take the time to enjoy this Thanksgiving celebration for its pure intentions. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

So please look at your Course Report in your respective Edgenuity classes and meet those deadlines. Do not wait until the last week to complete all your coursework. Stay on pace and submit quality work. Should you need help, contact your facilitators, attached is the 2021 Calendar of Activities.

3. Take advantage of QCVA's Academic Incentives- finals exemption OR additional 10% on finals/cumulative exam. Please see the requirements in the flyer attached. You still have time to make appearances or attend live sessions, so please attend. Links to each facilitator's Office Hours Google Meets are in the 2021 Calendar of Activities.

When this happens, please reach out to your teacher right away so s/he can reset the unit test Review and add another retake for the Unit Test.
