Competition is FIERCE!

Hello Students!

Today, genius struck in 3rd period.
Like, seriously.
We decided to have a contest for the classes to see which class can earn the highest median average, and here's what we came up with:

*For any class that earns a median grade of 80%, *all* students in the class will receive TWO POINTS on top of their final grade for the semester. So...if you have a 63...you'll receive a 65!

*The class that earns the HIGHEST median grade will receive THREE POINTS on top of the final grade for the semester. So if you have a 77, you will earn an 80!

If you are wondering how your class can win, it's easy: turn in make up homework and missing assignments! The biggest gains in class median scoring are made by students who have a grade between 50-75; once you raise your score to a 75 the entire class benefits. Go for it!

Here are the MEDIAN AVERAGE numbers for this week:

Pd. 3: 77%

Pd. 4: 69%

Pd. 7: 72%

Pd. 8: 69%

Pd. 9: 69%

I will post class median scores each week on the blog and track the scores throughout the week on the whiteboard in my room!

Good luck!

Ms. Smith
