Quarter 4 Week 1

As spring commences as does the 4th Quarter...Just about three months left of school and it is imperative students finish out the school year strong. This is the time when students begin to be complacent and we must prevent students from relaxing too much and give full effort to the weeks remaining assignments and projects to ensure success this final quarter.
