Announcements for UNIT 5:
TIP of the MORNING: Age quod agis -- Do what you are doing. Don't let your mind wonder away from the task at hand. When you are doing math, do math. When you are resting, rest. This way you get the most done and get the most out of the time you spend on anything. Be present, focused, and disciplined.
NEW PHY. ED. COURSE AVAILABLE: We are pleased to announce that our Physical Education Course is available ahead of schedule! If you are interested in earning credit toward graduation for either individual or team athletic achievements this year, this course is for you. For a limited time, it is available for the same cost as an Independent Credit. Given the self-paced nature of the course, students can enroll now and earn for a full or half credit this year. Participation in athletics makes up the majority of the work required for this course. Read more & enroll here.
