Hello and welcome to Alternative Education. Just a few reminders about expectations in here. All students are expected to work in class. You should get about a packet done a week.

So if they average 1 packet a week they will easily get 2 classes done. If you ever hav ...

Sorry missed a post. Short weeks seem to through me off and I forget things. We have this week and one more part week left in this trimester. You should be finishing up your second class I am hoping this week, if not by finals week at least. If you do not finish the class you do not receive credit for that class. You must finish the entire class to get any credit and a passing grade. ...
