CLASSMARKER.COM
Most of our homework assignments are completed using an online program called classmarker.com.  Homework will be available beginning Monday and must be completed before the weekly quiz.

This week's homework is on flat and sharp notes.  Please USE YOUR NOTES and complete the assignment before the quiz on Friday (quiz day is Friday this week because of the holiday weekend).

OFFICER ELECTIONS
We will vote in class on Tuesday/Wednesday this week (so you can meet the candidates before voting).

The Unsung Hero is someone who has selflessly gone above and beyond to help, inspire and be a positive example in class for others.

Our first hero of the year is Eden Ephrem, who sings in Women's Choir.  Eden is a great participant in Women's Choir and was a huge help (along with many others) at Back-to-School Night!
