HCS Soccer at Lee Academy

Cougar soccer hits the ground running in 2012 with a 3:00 game at Lee Academy on January 2. Yes, we are missing the majority of our first day back at school. This is my Christmas gift to the team. We will get out of class at 10:00 (break for high school or the middle of 2nd period for jr. high), and I hope to leave campus by 10:15. Country Woods Baptist Church has very graciously offered its vans for our road trip, so we don't have to sort out the normal carpool details. We will stop for lunch at a Subway or something similar, probably in Yazoo City, so players will need to bring money or pack a lunch. If all goes well, we will be back in Jackson before 9, even if we stop for a quick supper.

Semester Exams Week

Now that all of my exams have come to an end, I am working on finalizing grades for the semester. I hope to finish doing that today, which would mean that the grades that you see after 6:00 tonight would be accurate.

9th Adv. students and parents please note the following: STI does not properly weight the semester exam score when averaging semester grades. Because of this, we hand weight the grades and enter the weighted grade into STI. That is why you may see grades above 100 for the semester exam score.

If you need to get in touch with me over the break, please leave a comment here. I will use the contact information in STI to reach you so that you do not have to post a personal phone number or e-mail address on the internet for all to see.

I have thoroughly enjoyed this semester, and I'm looking forward to another one (and Shakespeare!) starting in a couple of weeks.

Have a merry Christmas!
