The end of the 2008-2009 school year is fast approaching!  This also means that the 4th Quarter is also almost at an end!

The last day I will accept any late work for this quarter is June 4, 2009.

So if your student has any missing work, you might want to encourage him/her to get it done and in by June 4, 2009.
