So for tomorrow March 23rd, please complete the assignments due by end of day tomorrow and any past due assignments. 

Starting hopefully on Tuesday, we will be meeting online together.  I will let everyone know the times.  However, I will be only posting assignments as we move from day to day.  This is mainly because some of you were doing assignments out of order.  Also this will mirror our usual day to day school routine. Okay, talk soon!  Miss you all very much :(
