Keeping Up in 2012-13

If you are a 1st period student taking the National Exam, then you must make up the final exam for APHG next week during your ACT block and come to my class for that period:

4th ACT 7:20 am Tuesday
5th ACT 9:27 am Tuesday

6th ACT 7:20 am Wednesday.

Similarly, 2nd period students taking the National Exam on Friday will be missing their 1st period class' exam. You too will need to make up your 1st period final exam during your ACT block. Go to your 1st period teacher rather than attend ACT for two hours on Tues or Wed.
AP National Exam: Friday, May 17.  Be here before 7:15 a.m. Arrange for a ride home around 11:30--11:45.
