Assignments / Agenda

I will post daily agenda's in the comments below- all forms and handouts will need to be accessed via Google classroom

Many assignment due dates will be posted on the Google Calendar above for those items assigned specifically via Google classroom. However, there are assignments that are posted in google classroom that need to be turned in with a hard copy. These assignments will not show up in the above calendar. You will find these assignments and the daily agendas inside Google classroom. Students enrolled in the course can access the Google Classroom account here.
