Last week, first quarter's lessons 10/27-10/31 - 2008

As we finish the First Quarter most of you have done a nice job. So, finish this quarter strong understanding this truth: spectacular achievement comes from unspectacular preparation. There are no standing ovations for studying or doing homework, just self-respect, and higher scores. Finally please make sure you check your grade on Aeries, and if you are not sure about something please see me.
