10:10 Study Session Sprint

10:30 IRC Exam – Web Professionals Test – Will take about 30 – 90 Minutes

When you are done with the test – you will leave the room. You may go to the library, cafeteria and eat lunch (whenever you want), sit in the courtyard…. When I open the room back up, that is when you are able to return. If the room is closed, it means someone is still taking the test. Same goes for CAWD 1.

Mr Cronin and I:

  • don’t make the questions or answers.
  • don’t grade it.
  • don’t even know the cut scores.

What I do know is students that take their time and do their best can pull off top tier work and get recognized for it, even if you struggled getting work in on time or complete this year.

When complete, we ask that you head out of the room and go to break. When the doors are open you can come back in. Go to the cafeteria, go to the library, go to Student Services. They key is when you finish please head out so the remainder have a quiet, low-stress environment to finish the exam.


11:50 Early Lunch today

12:25 Thank You Notes

Thank You’s – do you have someone you’d like to thank? Maybe a parent, teacher, counselor, neighbor, friend. Feel free to grab and use the Thank You cards found at the front of the room.

If you need help writing a thank you – please let me know. Below are some sentence starters:

“I am writing this note to acknowledge …”

“I wanted to write this note to thank you for …”

“Thank you so much for the work you did with me this year”

“I want to say how much I appreciated the ….”
