Time to Check the Grade Portal!

As I am wrapping up grading for this quarter, it's very important for students to check the grade portal frequently....especially those with a grade of D or F or have a grade on the borderline and want to insure that they get the higher grade.

Remember, the last good opportunity to retake a test with a D or F is on Thursday (1/8), so take advantage of this chance to improve your grade.  No additional HW.

Thanks So Much!

"Muchas gracias" for all of the tasty treats and gifts to help me celebrate the holidays.  It is so nice to be remembered in a special way at this time of year!
