Report cards for the first quarter went out last week.  Are you happy with what you earned?  If not there are some steps you can take to get better grades for Quarter 2. 

For any class you feel you did poorly in complete the following:

-Ask your teacher what you can do to improve.  Are you struggling with homework? Are you having trouble with tests?

-Schedule a time to get extra help with your teacher after school
-Find a quiet place to study at home
-Use an agenda to plan for all assignments
-Ask your peers if you have questions in a class
