Semester Schedule Update

Just a reminder that we will be meeting next on 11/23 for a full day of classes.
The week after (11/30) is Thanksgiving weekend, so enjoy your family and don't eat too much!

December 7th is our last day - I will be giving out your attendance certificates and then we will meet with the entire COPE class for a party.  Usually the students plan the party so we will talk more about what you should bring on 11/23.  Classes are held at the same time, but for 1 hour with a 15 minute 'switch'.  Then we will meet in 1 classroom for a group party! - yep - you get out early!

Post about Bullying

This is a news post about Bullying in our country and how people are trying to raise awareness about it.

We can talk about this next time we meet.
