How are we doing?

It doesn't seem possible that four weeks of school have already passed. I have all of your son's and daughter's grades entered in the computer. Ask for the current English average tomorrow. The seventh graders have a major exam on genres of literature Wednesday, September 29. Be sure they study. Ninth graders are doing The Odyssey. I love this epic. I hope to instill this love in them.

Grading

The passing grade in seventh grade now is 65. I hope this doesn't make the students work less hard. I encourage them all to strive for the top, not to do enough just to get by. I will be telling your son or daughter his or her average this Monday on the nineteenth. The grades are pretty good so far.

Vocabulary words for the week

Given September 23, 2005: available, cater, customary, dissuade, entrepreneur, firebrand, hazard, homicide, indifference, indignant Test September 30, 2005

Notes of interest

The pictures for the yearbook will be taken in English classes on Thursday, September 29. If you wish to purchase a package, pick up an envelope in the guidance office. The seventh graders will be starting a novel on Thursday. You may want to question your student about this book.
