In course 3, we will be taking our next Quarterly Test.  There is no need to study for this, it is supposed to test what the students already know.  The results of the test are given to me to look over, but the tests are not graded.  Of course, we encourage students to do their best.  We do look at these tests, in addition with other factors, to help us place students in their math classes for next year.
 
I have also attached a letter that I will be handing out to the students tomorrow.  It explains and activity that we will be doing next week.
