Warm Enough For Ya?

I will create the Moodle for Friday's lesson tomorrow.  I gotta say that I am a bit disappointed in the actions/behavior of some of you seniors.  Understand that you are REQUIRED to have four years of English and social studies.  One F/No Credit and you do not graduate on time.  You may be allowed to walk in the ceremony, but it does not mean you get a diploma.  Also, keep in mind that colleges are much more competitive nowadays and have been known to rescind acceptance based on second semester performance (or rather, lack thereof).  So, please understand this simple FACT:  by outright skipping a class on a day when I had an activity planned, some of you have chosen to lose the 3% of the quarter''s credit.  So, you have just traded a + or - for your day of fun.  Add up enough of them over the final quarter and, combined with your probable lack of effort and achievement, you may find yourself needing summer school just to get a diploma and a frantic search for a college that will take you in the Fall.  Remember this later this year when the weather is even nicer and the urge to skip becomes stronger due to senioritis.  Many of you wasted your skip day for nothing.  Stupid.

Court Cases/Amendments exam will NOT be tomorrow (Mon), but may appear this week.  I do not know when the final is scheduled, but expect to be tested on everything from Qtr 3 (Basically Units IV and V).  And there will be an in-class essay (actually 2) along with some discussions.  That's a lot in just 9 remaining days.  Oh and I will be closing past forums tomorrow evening.  Get 'em done or lose the points.  Be responsible and enjoy your senior year.
