Hi All,
I had a lecture for the students today on making sure that they are responsible for their marks in November, the first reporting period. I am sorry to say their are about 10-12 students that are presenting "failing". Not because the work is too hard, but because of the following reasons:
1) too much absenteeism
2) too much goofing around in class
3) disengagement in class discussions
4) not doing HOMEWORK
All of the combined will make it very hard for your child to succeed, if at least two of these problems can be resolved, there is a fighting chance. I will always work hard for students that work hard. I can not make a student learn or force them to listen... but I will let a child know that they can do more, by giving them a letter grade they deserve.
So, Month End's are coming home tomorrow, and you will be fully informed of all the work your child needs to do before report cards.
See everyone Tuesday,
Ms. Mack
