 Hello everyone, 

It is hard to believe that the school year has gone this fast so far!  We are already in December, and our break is upon us.  

There is no homework over the break.  I hope you all have a wonderful two weeks off.

It is a pleasure to be able to serve as teacher for such a wonderful group of students.  

If you celebrate Christmas, I wish you a very Merry Christmas.  If you celebrate Hanukkah, I wish you a very Happy Hanukkah.  And to everyone, I hope you have a very happy holiday season.

Mr. Carr
