We will also attempt to schedule a couple of mutually agreeable lab days during Voyagers break time. If students are interested in studying for the SAT subject test or AP test, I will be willing to hold some extra study sessions after the end of the spring term * Don't bother to take this class if you won't commit to doing at least some of the homework every week. It's not worth your time or mine. * -- Main.TrinaToups - 03 Apr 2007 Ongoing class from Fall 2007 |
