Spring Semester 2016

Welcome Back Everyone! I hope you all had a nice Winter Break! I bet a lot of things happened, some things were probably fun, others were probably not fun. I had a very nice break, some things were fun, some things were not fun.
Fun things: Seeing my family, giving and getting presents, having time to be at home in my space.
Not fun things: Helping my friend through a hard time, doing homework assignments that I had fallen behind on.

I am very glad to be back at school, I missed seeing all of you! As we get back into the school routine, I want you to keep some things in mind.

1. We all make mistakes, just keep trying your best.
2. Do your best to follow the classroom rules.
3. When you make a mistake, be willing to admit it and accept responsibility.
