Welcome Back

Welcome back to the 2010 school year. As you all know well, passing the CAHSEE is a requirement for graduation. Will you pass?  You all can.  The question is...How badly do you want it?  I can teach you and help you and give you essays to write and homework to practice on, but you have to take all of that seriously. You have to read outside of this classroom. You have to do the homework, write the essays, and take the practice tests. You have to want it. It's not a joke. It's real and it's time.

Opportunities are usually disguised as hard work, so most people don't recognize them. - Ann Landers
