You will start having quizzes on Enduring Issues starting this week.
You will be given an enduring issue & you must define it, list 3 examples of it, and be able to explain one of those examples & how the enduring issue applies to it.
No one is exempt from these, and they are unannounced. If you are absent & miss one, you are responsible to come before school the next day to do it or receive a zero. As always, you have until 7:15 m to come to 1823 to complete this. If you are absent, it is your responsibility to find out from someone if you missed one of these quizzes.
