Sorry, I keep bugging you about this stuff..; 4:50 PM
Mr. Caro said...: Not to worry! Yes, there will be letters that go home starting Friday.

Good luck!; 7:06 PM

Mr. Caro said...: Imagine if it was for ALL tests, not just AP or IB! I think attendance would go up on test days!; 9:22 AM
Mr. Carlisle said...: In my day students didn't get money for taking tests. They earned sea shells and dirty rocks for taking tests.

We also hoofed it a lot.; 2:44 PM

Mr. Caro said...: Watch out Oregonians! Soon you will have to take a test to graduate from high school!; 4:43 PM
