Welcome Back!!

It's that time again! Summer is over and it's time to get back in the swing of school... This year in Algebra 1 you will be taking the End of Instruction exam at the end of April. Our state legislators passed a law declaring that students must take and pass this exam at the conclusion of instruction. There are 7 EOIs and Algebra 1 is one of 4 each student must pass to graduate from high school. I promise to do what I can to ensure success for each and every student. Attendance is a must, if you are not in class you will be missing important skills and this will greatly reduce your chances for success. I look forward to a wonderful year! Welcome to class!

Wednesday 12th:
1-16 items to remember...

Thursday 13th:
1-step equations

Friday 14th:
1-step equations/2-step equations
