Fall is here and the temperatures are getting cooler. The autumnal equinox was last night 9/22/2014 meaning that the day and night are equal length. Hint, hint--this might very well be a question on the history quiz this week.
Wednesday is a 1/2 day and the Red Team will be watching All's Quiet on the Western Front during periods C-F.
English: Students are continuing to read A Separate Peace and answering guided reading questions and completing vocabulary activities. Some classes have started their personal narrative on friendship, other classes will start later this week.
