Unit Test 5 is here!  6th graders will be taking their unit test (on geometry) this Friday.  Remember, we want every student to demonstrate at least 80% mastery on the assessment.  A study guide was distributed last Friday and will be due this Friday.  

Unit Test 5 for 8th graders will be next week.  Get ready!  This week, we will be continuing our study of the quadratic equation and using it to solve word problems.

I'm not sure if everyone is aware of this resource, but we have opened a Math Lab that meets in room 802 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays to help students with math homework only (the Homework Center is for all subjects). The math lab is open from 2pm-3pm (the Homework Center is open until 4pm). This is a quieter, smaller, place for students to get help with their math homework. Please come here if you would like additional help. It, too, is staffed by John Muir math teachers.
