Review Assignments

Welcome Back!

After completing the review assignments, I am pleased with the level of work from students enrolled in the Level 2 and Level 3 classes.  Retention of practices and principles has shown to be impressive and will allow us to progress at a substantial rate.

Please ask your student to show you their portfolio as the semester progresses.  I think you will be impressed with some of the things we are able to acomplish in these classes.
