NEWS for the WEEK OF JULY 2nd

FIRST, CHECK YOUR EMAIL ABOUT AN OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE MC2R'S COLLEGE READINESS CLASS, or CLICK HERE TO SEE THE MESSAGE!  Remember to check your Spam, too...just in case!!!!

We had our second face-to-face (F2F) session yesterday, which was wonderful (especially the second half).  There was a ton of sharing, insightful comments, laughter, a-ha moments, the whole nine.  Thank you to those who attended.

We are having another F2F session on Thursday, July 13th at NOON (be mindful of the time, as many of yesterday's folks arrived at 12:30).  It will also end at 2:30.  YOU ARE EXPECTED TO STAY THE ENTIRE TIME.  If you cannot, you need to notify us ahead of time.  Why is this so important?  You are our responsibility during those hours.  If you arrive late, or leave early, we cannot account for where you are during those times.  Since we do not get paid, and are not on the clock for these sessions, WE are liable...not Dade Schools.  It's a slippery slope, you see!   Remember that if you come prepared with your book and your work completed, and stay for the entire time, you will not be responsible for the last quiz. Please leave a comment if you plan to attend. 

Please note that the test dates have been modified (emailed it this past weekend).  You are expected to submit your quizzes ON TIME.  You can submit them late, but you will receive a late grade (15% off).  Remember, your participation will not only affect your first quarter grade, but also the field trips and activities we have planned for you all.  (As a side note, Gonzi and I reflected on and recognized that we were a little soft in letting people go on field trips.  THAT WILL NOT HAPPEN THIS YEAR, WE CAN PROMISE YOU! And it won't matter how much we love you, it is what it is.  You make the choice, you WILL live with it.)

Please read the feedback on your quizzes.  IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU READ ALL COMMENTS!!!!!  We don't want you to keep getting marked off for the same mistakes!

Happy Fourth of July!  Our FREEDOM is a blessing!  Enjoy your families, the BBQs, the beach, whatever.  Just relax and bask in your liberty!

LOVE YOU ALL!
