Welcome to all new students and welcome back to our returning students.
Everyday for the entire school year on any given day, you can find your math assignments posted here. If you want to contact me, you can also do that through schoolnotes.
Today is freshman orientation so no freshman classes will meet today. Many of the seniors are mentors so there is no pre cal or calculus homework.
