Class Calendar: 2019-20
Please note that the class calendar builds backwards, so the most recent dates are at the top of the page.
Items listed in GREEN are things that students must make-up, or see Mr. Cushing about.
Items listed in RED are homework assignments, or due dates.
Please also be aware that ours' is a fluid class, and plans often change suddenly. I will make every effort to keep the calendar up-to-date, but our lessons do have a tendency to get moved around at the last second.
