starting Tuesday, January 13th. Retrieval classes will be on Tuesday and Wednesday

from 3:50 – 5:45 PM in room G-10. Students will be enrolled in the after-school class

for up to 7 weeks for each semester they need to retrieve. Only one absence is

allowed during the 7 weeks. If a student is absent a second time, they will be
