• Today, during the reading period, students will be taking the Career Readiness Survey. Please monitor your classroom to make sure students are completing the survey. I will get on the PA to instruct students at that time to log onto their computers and complete the survey. The survey should take a few minutes to complete. Mrs. Martin will send the email link to all students right before the reading period.
