Wednesday, May 27, 2020

Important Information for All Students:
Be sure to read any/all emails that come from CVHS, your teachers, or the school district.  Lots of information about the end of the school year is coming your way. 


The library/bookroom is processing the textbooks you left in your lockers -- but many books still need to be turned in.  If you have textbooks at home, please plan to return them next week, along with any other school property.  District computers need not be returned until you graduate from CVHS. 

Office Hours: I will hold final sessions of Office Hours today. This is your last chance to ask me questions about grades, or to briefly see and say goodbye to your classmates.  Links for the meets are in Google Classroom. This is optional, as always. 

2nd period: tomorrow at 10:00
4th period: tomorrow at 11:00[

6th period: tomorrow at 1:00

Juniors and Sophomores: I will accept and grade any work turned in this week.  I will file grades on Friday, May 29th.  All your work should be turned in by that date.

Seniors: Your grades have already been filed; You're done.
Gmail accounts: at some point over the summer, your gmail account will be closed down. If you need to retrieve/save any projects, essay, etc.,  from your Google Drive, do that right away so you don't lose it.  Check the email you received from the school for instructions on how to do this.  Lectures, essays and other projects could provide a useful starting point for some college assignments.  Move it or lose it. 

The Senior Awards Night presentation has been moved up to Wednesday, May 27th, from 8-9 pm.  If the video isn't finished by then, it will be delayed, but this is the goal.

Diplomas will be distributed on May 28th and 29th.  Check your email for information about this, so you will know when to come, where to line up (in your car), how many people can come with you, etc. Come in your cap and gown -- there will be a photographer.

Important Information for All Students:
Today is the last day of Distance Learning classes!  Congratulations on sticking with it through the whole, crazy, coronavirus quarantine.

If you want to say hi and goodbye to your classmates one last time for the year, or ask me any questions about grades, etc., come to Virtual Farewell on Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. Links will be posted in Google Classroom.

Tuesday: 
1st Period at 10:00
5th Period at 1:00

Wednesday:
2nd Period at 10:00
4th Period at 11:00
6th Period at 1:00

Grades: Remember, we have moved to a CR/NC grading system for the 4th quarter and 2nd semester. You will receive either CR (Credit) or NC (No Credit) rather than a letter grade for the 4th quarter and for 2nd semester.

Late work: I will be accepting and grading late work through May 29th.  Remember to check Aeries to keep track of your progress in Distance Learning.  You can find all of the assignments in Google Classroom.

Seniors: Pickup of diplomas and awards/certificates you have earned will take place on May  28th and 29th.  Be sure to read the emails from the school describing the process.  You can also return any school property at this time, and you will have the opportunity to have your picture taken.

Virtual Senior Awards Night: May 28th, from 7-9 pm.
Virtual Graduation: May 29th, from 6-8 pm.


US History: 
Finish up the material on the Vietnam War.  The slides are in Google Classroom, along with links for 3 short Edpuzzle videos. 

EL World History:
Go to Google Classroom and complete the unit test for "Russian Revolution and the Cold War."

AP Euro:
Read Chapter 30 and check your comprehension with the combined test/SG. The link for this is in Google Classroom.  It's not an assignment; it's just there to amuse you. 

Please remember to return your book, if you have not already done so.  I'm not sure if they will be taking book returns during the Graduation Drive-Thru.  

APEH Class of 20-21:
All parts of the summer assignment are now in Google Classroom, including a pdf of Chapter 11.  Follow the instructions for each section.  

Check this weblog over the summer for updated information. 

If you find any errors or problems with the materials posted in Google Classroom, please let me know right away so I can fix them.  This is the first time I've posted the entire assignment on GC, and there may be some errors/omissions, etc.   I check email regularly over the summer. 

All parts of the assignment are due by July 24th, but feel free to turn in sections early if you complete them before the due date.
