End of the Quarter - March 9th - Are you prepared?
Have you checked PowerSchool?

If so, work on them during Advisory, WIN, extra time in class, and each night to get them completed.
If so and you don’t know how to complete them - ask your teacher for the directions again!
Have you made arrangements to retake assignments/tests with your teacher?
If you have questions about assignments, have you asked your teacher?
Does your grade reflect what you know? And, are you doing what you need to do as a student in your classes?
