Our number one goal is for our students to stop and think about how past United States and world events, people, and cultures have affected them as individuals.
Students will know, in advance, the dates of quizzes and tests. There will be no "pop" quizzes. Both quizzes and tests will be given throughout the course of the year. Each test will have a review session and students will be provided review study sheets.
