Remember that on Wednesday there will still be an assignment but time will be allowed in class or study hall to complete.  I will try to stay very close to this schedule but I may have to change due to weather and other scheduling conflicts that may occur.
 


Christmas Break starts at the end of the half day on Wednesday, Dec. 19 through Jan. 2.

Check WMUR-TV (ch. 9) or WZID
(95.7 FM) radio  for school delays or cancellations.
