Week of 01/06 - 01/10

This is it, the end of the semester. Our last week of class together. I am sure you are overtly glad to be getting another semester behind you, but somewhere inside you are just a little bit sad to see this semester go. I know I am, even if you are not. I know that things will be amping up in all your classes as you make the final push to final exams, but remember, nothing is set in stone: your final grade for any course this semester is not a done deal, there is still time to make a difference. Your final exam in most of your classes is worth 20% of your total grade for the course (25% in EOC courses) which means there is still a lot to be written in your grade; a lot can change for your final grade in the next two weeks, why not make that change for the better? Also, be sure to check out the Exam Schedule and notes from the Leesville website.

Many students have applied to do test correction this quarter but few have actually signed up for them! I mean, sure, it is less work for me, but that isn't what I am going for here. I am going for giving you the opportunity to pull your grade up higher to make it easier for you to achieve your goal for the course! Be sure to sign up on the form on the American History I page or the notebook in class. We will also have 1st Semester Awards Day on Tuesday. We will be voting for "Students' Choice" on Monday (and if necessary, conducting a run-off on Tuesday). The students in each class with the highest average (so far) will also be recognized.
