Welcome Back!

So welcome back to another school year folks! For the grade 8s it's your first trek into high school, for the grade 12s it's your last year of high school.

Remember to get your parents/guardians to read that letter, sign it and then return the bottom portion to me before the end of the week.

Also for all my classes, expect a test tomorrow to review your previous knowledge of math as it will be necessary to see how much you remember and how much I'll have to reteach through the course of all my classes (even in physics as physics is just applied math)
