Hi, Students!
Hope you've enjoyed the weekend and are ready to continue our CRCT class reviews. This week we'll continue to review units that we covered earlier this year. Hopefully, you had fun with our field trip on Friday. You have a long week break next week for SPRING BREAK, so let’s work extra hard this week finishing up our review. See you in class!
