Homeroom:
Please read at the beginning of all classes.
Dear students: I am out unexpectedly today.
Please be respectful of your teacher at all times. I have left instructions to write down the name of anyone who is disrespectful or disruptive. Anyone written down will receive a written warning. I appreciate your maturity and help in making this Friday a smooth and enjoyable end of the week.
Also remember that MCAS is being held in grade six. Please be quiet and thoughtful of others taking their tests today.
sincere thanks,
Mr. wahlstrom
