Speechless!

It was very disappointing to think that it was OK to leave the boy's bathroom like this today after our activity.

Boys, I just thought you might like to see who cleaned up your mess! (Special thanks also to Niko who also stayed to clean up after everybody) Thank you also to the girls that made sure their restroom was clean, especially Beatrice who was cleaning until 3:15pm.

Root of the Week: -log (word) -logy (Study)

Congrats. on your excellent pieces of 'abstract writing.' Enjoy these excellent pieces from Emily and Sanjo.  Also look at the amount of effort Carolina put into her work. When people receive 'F' for not doing their work, this is why. This is what your class mates are doing, so don't you think it is only fair that the difference in effort be reflected in the grades???
