Important Dates/Info:

• Parent Teacher Conferences: Wednesday
• If you were absent for the Polynomial Test this past Friday you must make it up this week. You currently have an “E” in the class because it is counted as missing and your classmates are waiting patiently to get their tests passed back to them!

The key to the review guide is attached here:
