Activities for week fifteen 5/16 - 5/20 - 2011

As we finish the year I still have a few messages and opportunities for you. If you want to be successful and to maximize your efforts and talents as a good student you need to stop blaming others, take a good look in the mirror, and take responsibility for your own life and grades. Oprah Winfrey says, "My philosophy is that not only are you responsible for your life, but doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment." I hope that you will be in the place you want to be next year and this summer. You may see me for an extra credit opportunity.

Do not forget this week you get to be a "Star" as we will be star testing.
