Wow...my apologies for not posting since June 10th...my only excuse is that Graduation was approaching and as one of the coordinators for that, June 10-14 was a blur! Needless to say, we finished out courses and prepped for exams.
Exams started June 21st and finished up today (June 26th)!
Tomorrow is an administration day for the teachers to get report cards and marks ready to go and Friday, the school is open until noon for the students to come and pick up their report cards.
I'd like to wish everyone a great summer and hopefully we have great weather and a relaxing time. It has been a pleasure teaching my classes and we will see what next year brings with the new six-period day!
Happy Summer Holiday! I'll be back to blogging when the kids return after the long weekend in September!
