Back to school

May 25 and we are back from vacation! Remember- Group Research project proposals are due Monday. Congratulations! You had an extra week to work on them!

This week we will do some review and take our Bimestre tests, while getting started looking towards our 2d Bimestre projects. it should be a crazy week!

Grade Reminders

Tuesday I will be sending academic notifications to parents who have promedios below 68. If you have not turned in any assignments, you must have them turned in by Monday to have a chance for them to be counted.

Research Question

Monday the research Question is due.

Unfortunately, several people didn't turn in their notebooks this last Friday. That is going to put them behind very early for this year. It is very important that everybody keep up with their work. If you fall behind this early, it will be a very difficult year!

Notebooks and Research Questions

Remember - all notebooks must be turned in on Friday (no exceptions - cannot be turned in late)

Also, Research Questions must be turned in by Monday, 20 April!

Starting Market Research

I hope everybody enjoyed their Semana Santa fiesta!

This is going to be a very busy week. Our Monday class in business will be shortened because of a momento civico, but your internship report papers are still due.

We will begin working on Workforce Theory this week - make sure you bring your text book, notebook and IB case study to class every day.

Semana Santa! Happy Fiesta!

To all of my wonderful students - Enjoy Semana Santa!

Just two weeks into our new school year and we are faced with a big, 4-day holiday weekend. Most of you will probably head for the beach, but no matter where you go, have a great time. But remember, your internship report paper is still due Monday!

Also, Monday will be a partial day because of Dia del Maestro (Teacher Day - another holiday? I loooove this place) - but even if our scheduled class is not held that day the papers still need to be turned in.

Have a wonderful time!
