photo credit - Rhyanne Fritz, Photography II 2013-14 |
Please take some time to look around. Notice the new class tabs located at the top of the page. Follow those to interactive Google presentations, which house calendars, syllabi, essential questions and assignment links.
The student blogs located to the right will be updated with our new and returning students' blog pages, and the class rubrics, also to the left, will be replaced with the new student-generated criteria developed by our Generals.
Here's to a phenomenal 2014-15. Lift off!
