Life in High School

Umm, so we just finished the semester and all its exams. I really feel the need to vent a bit right now.

I have a sparse handful of kiddos that are passing my semester exam in Calculus AB. Now, I gave them an excellent review that they were to study. I think that what they did in their study sessions is attempt to memorize the answers! Are you serious? Does any college class: #1 Give you a review? and #2 Put that as the test? AAGHHHH!

If they completed the review for understanding, the test was easy. Seriously! :-(

It is not really looking good for my AP Exam grades this year again. I am trying to build a program and seemingly failing at this moment...

So, will all of that happiness, I guess I will try to think of something cheerful.... We saw a couple of snowflakes out the window today! That seems to be a rarity in TX...

Until the next time...
