The Homework assignment for Geometry and Honors Algebra 2 should read the same thing everyday:

Students and Parents:
All HW assignments for Quarter 3 and 4 will come from our new Accelerated Math program. Students have access to this program at home via the website hosted276.renlearn.com/1427344/HomeConnect. Students are already aware of their Usernames and Passwords.
To access and score the assignment, students click
1. “Practices and Exercises”
2. On the right side of the screen either click “Reprint” to see the assignment again (if they’ve lost the one handed out in class) or
3. “Score Assignment” to type in the answers.
All students who do not have access to a computer at home can scan before or after school in Ms. Williams’ room. They can also use the library or the computer lab on campus. Students will have homework EVERY night.
