30 Jan 2024 Grade 12 Applied. Word of the day: Permutation
Announcements:
- Hardly Anybody has done the MSHSD SURVEY. Due it today! Worth Marks now! Last Chance
- Be aware it is better to Voluntarily Withdraw (VW) from a course than to be Withdrawn (WD) by the school. A WD appears on provincial academic transcripts, and as such, has a bad context. Having less than a pass mark is OK, it shows that a student is trying and will likely succeed the next time.
- Let me know if you would rather use your assigned Microsoft 365 Yellowquill e-mail.
