This is the second part of Trimester 2. Please start strong. I usually see grades go up the second trimester, but it always take you being a conscientious student that keeps focused on assignments and work. I have learned once again from doing grades this weekend that attendance greatly impacts and predicts your performance. Please keep in touch f anything should arise, but also push yourself to be here daily. I believe you will really like what we are studying this last grading period with WWI, The Roaring 20s, and the Great Depression.
