Extra help

I am willing to give assistance to any student who requests it. However, during the fall I am available before school only, due to the fact I am coaching after school. After soccer season is complete I will then be available after school. I ask only for a student to give me twenty-four hours notice, in order to determine availability. 

Extra Credit

This will only be given in the event that a student comes to me three weeks before the end of the marking period. It is at that time that I will give a student a project based on what we are learning at that time..

Homework Live

This is an internet site that allows a student or parent to review what homework/ tests that will be covered during a given week. Parents are encouraged to create their own accounts.. www.homeworklive.com

**I would like to emphasize that it is extremely important to make sure your son/daughter continues to be up-to-date with their notes. If they are absent from school, it is their responsibility to approach me and determine what they have missed. I will be testing directly from the notes that are given. In addition to tests, I will be giving notebook quizzes on daily objectives and also key terms and names. If there are any problems please do not hesitate to e-mail me, and I will respond to you as quickly as possible.
