Parents/Guardian –

I have reviewed my child’s activities and homework for the week of 11/15/10 – 11/19/10.

I understand that is important for me to make sure that my child is studying to be prepared for the Quiz on 11/30/10 and has completed all assignments this week.

I understand if my child needs to retake a quiz that the original quiz with corrected answers that has been signed must be brought to class at the time of the quiz retake and quiz retakes occur on Tuesdayafterschool.
