I have reviewed my child’s activities and
homework for the week of 11/15/10 –
11/19/10.
I understand that is important for me
to make sure that my child is
studying to be prepared for the
Quiz on 11/30/10 and has
completed all assignments this
week.
I understand if my child needs to
retake a quiz that the original quiz
with corrected answers that has
been signed must be brought to
class at the time of the quiz retake
and quiz retakes occur on Tuesday
afterschool.
