WELCOME TO DISTANCE-LEARNING!
We will need patience on both ends as we navigate through this time together. As we enter week 2, it is important that all work needs to be completed and according to the due date posted. When work is requested to be turned into Google Classroom, that is where it is expected to be. Again, it is imperative to Read all directions here and on Google Classroom before emailing me with any questions.
I WILL BE AVAILABLE DURING THE SCHOOL WEEK FROM 8:30 AM TO 10:30 AM TO ANSWER EMAILS.

People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies;
Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you;
Be honest and sincere anyway.
What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight;
Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today will often be forgotten;
Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it will never be enough;
Give your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway.
~ Blessed Teresa of Calcutta’s version of "The Paradoxical Commandments" by Dr. Kent M. Keith
