Miss Gorman: Modified Due Dates

Due to today's snow day, there have been a few changes in this weeks due dates.

Social Studies: We will review on Tuesday, and your test has been rescheduled for Thursday Feb 26th. Please contact me if you have plans to be away on this date for the ski trip.

Health (grade 8): Please find me this week to hand in your duo-tang. I would like all duo-tangs handed in to me before you leave for March break!

We will continue to plan for the math and science tests to go ahead this week as planned.
