A REMINDER:
Upon release of your score on the AP English Language and Composition Examination, your final grade for English 6 will be adjusted, depending on whether or not you receive a 4 or a 5 for this to take place. When I return in September, I will submit the grade changes. Keep in mind that several of you did not exert much effort throughout the school-year and/or you interfered with the education of others-for those who fall into this category-we will discuss what changes if any should be made upon your return to school. If you have engaged in plagiarism and/or cheating during an assessment at any time during the school year, requesting a higher grade- based on your AP score- will also have to be discussed.

ATTENTION A-BAND STUDENTS:
The CITR assessment (50+) Multiple Choice Questions will begin promptly at 0813. If you arrive after the start of class, you will NOT be allocated any additional time after-school, regardless of the excuse.

A Reminder: On Thursday, 13 June, ALL Bands will be administered a 50+ assessment on The Catcher in the Rye. Sadly, I have determined-based upon your Dialectical Journal Assignment-that many students did NOT read this text in its entirety! For those who did, you will do well. For those who did not, ...

ATTENTION! ATTENTION! ATTENTION!
Too many students disregarded my directive to turn-in the "hard-copy" of the CITR Journal assignment on Wednesday, 4 June-even though their class was not scheduled to meet. As a result, I will deduct points for not complying with this requirement-unless you were absent from school-I will verify this with the Attendance Office. Furthermore, how is it possible to respond in one-two sentences in an analysis/discussion of a specific quote. Obviously, several students-in this college-level class- continue to submit mediocre/below average work. Much to my dismay, for the "intratextual" examples, students neglected to include another quote (on the right-hand side) that made a "connection" to the quote provided on the left-hand side of the journal...
