Mr. Cronin

Notes

  • Happy Saturday birthday to Schuyler!
  • Have your 3 CAWD projects ready to go when you walk in the door Monday AM. Scan today if you have to. Work a bit harder today to get them done. Hit. The. Deadlines.
  • Let’s remember that when Mrs. McCadden gives us time to work in English, the expectation is that we use it, so we aren’t pulled from CAWD to work on English next Wednesday. There are no extensions on CAWD work because you were called back to English, because you didn’t work hard during English. No.
