Welcome to a new school year. We are starting earlier this year thanks to the community who voted in the new school calendar. Luckily we have air conditioning. I love air conditioning so be prepared to be cool. For those of you who want to get a head start you need to know a few things: first you need to know EVERYTHING about fractions and secondly you need to know how to add, subtract, multiply and divide. If you cannot do these you need to learn how. Review your little brother or sister's math book. Have mom and dad review with you. Algebra is not difficult but the basic math that goes with can be for a lot of you. Let's start the year off with a bang and show everyone that Algebra ROCKS.
