Chapter 16, Section 4 - Daily Life During the War notes.
4th Quarter grade sheets were posted today - students with late work were encouraged to complete and turn it in as soon as possible. There are a number of students who still have not submitted their autobiography papers. Students who went on the band trip or have been absent will have until tomorrow (Friday) to submit their papers before they are penalized for being late. These papers were due on Monday, April 14. A zero grade (not turning in a paper) on this paper will have the same effect on a student's grade as receiving a zero on a test, so it is important that these papers are turned in as soon as possible.
