Project Fair and Assignments

Hello again,

Here is a reminder that the All-School Project Fair is on Thursday, February 1st. Our advising class has been working on projects and doing well with our time in class. This is the major assignment for the term in advising (we will be moving on to storyline projects in Q3 and Q4). However, some work might not be easy to present (papers, stories, etc.) and I am encouraging the students to use completed work that they are proud of from any class for the fair. I will be helping set up all classes for the event. Please come and support the whole school, especially the upper school this year.

My other quick note is a reminder about major due dates for all classes (also see syllabus): UPDATED on Wednesday, Jan. 17th due to SNOW delay
