Week four activities 9/27 - 10/1 - 2010

Nothing is more important than relationships. As the school year moves on let us build our relationship. Wednesday night is back to school night and I would love to meet your parents and start a relationship with them. You can earn 25 extra credit points if they sign in Wednesday night during your period. Andrew Carnegie once said, "There is no use whatever trying to help people who do not help themselves. You cannot push anyone up a ladder unless he is willing to climb himself." I hope you want to climb the ladder of success - your success. Remember I will always be here in the mornings, break, and the beginning of lunch, or come to the tennis courts after school.
