The third Quarter Exam is at 10:35 AM on March 11, 2010. All late assignments should be submitted by March 5, 2010 to have it count toward the 3rd Qtr grade. Progress Reports are turned in 9 am Feb 8, 2010.

To help retain first semester skills, we occationally have a 1 point Review Quiz on a randomly selected homework question from any previous chapter. If you have an excused absence, quizzes do not need to be "made-up," but you are expected to take any missed test the day you return.
