Please have the following supplies by Monday 8/8/11. If you need a few extra days at least have pens, 2 pocket folders, paper, and composition book. DON'T forget to get your AGENDA signed daily. We don't send "Pack Facts" like elementary so it is essential that you read all notes and attachments daily.

We will prepare for the writing assessment next Wednesday (8/10/11) beginning on Monday. Thanks for your patience as we update our class syllabus- our grading percentages are changing slightly so look for those early next week. For now you may find class information on the school website go to Staff, McNeill, and Links to see some of our other resources. Under Powerpoints you can view 1st day procedures and the CALENDAR will help you keep up with due dates. PORTAL Parent access will not be available for a few weeks since it is a new system (we can't even get in right now).
Remember to return all of the paperwork from your manila folders (given out on THURSDAY). If you did not receive this please see your homeroom teacher ASAP. Also, don't forget to have your parents sign the computer and photo forms in the front of your agenda. DO NOT tear them out- they need to stay there so your teachers can check your internet permission.
Any questions please don't hesitate to email me: tracy.mcneill@douglas.k12.ga.us. I can get back to you this way quicker than a phone call.
I look forward to working with you all to make your 6th grade your one of your best. Show us your best self, best behavior, and "can do" attitude and I'm sure we'll go far this year.

*If you do not have internet access at home or use of a printer for final copies please let me know so we can make arrangements for you. Also, get a jump drive to back up/save your work in the computer labs and you may bring your own ear buds (not mp3s or ipods- just the headphones) for our lab use of Odyssey**
