Mid-term exams today and we head into our last marking period. I will grade and post exams on Power School by the end of the day. This is an ACT-like reading test and you can compare exam grades (roughly) to students' ACT scores to determine whether their reading ability is high, average, or needs improvement. Tomorrow I will offer study time for afternoon exams. If students need no time to study, we'll make our way back to the world of Jeannette Walls in her memoir The Glass Castle.
Enjoy spring break--I hope kids have an opportunity to sleep in and relax. Junior year is one of the most stressful, I think, with so many demands on kids to plan for their future--whether it's in their ACT scores, college visits, or planning for their senior year schedule. They need to decompress!
