Progress Reports Today

We passed out progress reports to all our seventh graders today. While the overall grade is for the entire 2nd semester, you will see that they only have assignments for this quarter. That is because only missing work from this quarter can still be made up. Also, you will see a couple of blank grades. THAT DOES NOT INDICATE A MISSING ASSIGNMENT. It simply means an assignment we haven't posted as of yet. Lastly, behavior is extra credit. If your student has a blank in that space, that means they have not behaved well enough to earn the points.
