Welcome to Ms. Byrnes Online Classroom.

Past Assignments

Absent students
are responsible for doing all class work on their own time. All SpringBoard pages are available to download in the "Documents" section of this website.

When you go to Parent Connect and see a message "Missing Assignment" for your child, you can locate all assignments listed by date in the "Homework" section of this website.
Compare Parent Connect to the assignments given for a clearer idea of how your child is doing or what they need to do in order to get those assignments completed. Late work is accepted but a student will not receive anything higher then a C grade for late work. 

Missing Assignment

If you see the message "Missing Assignment" in Parent Connect it is possible that those assignments have not yet been graded. Students use a portfolio In SpringBoard to organize their assignments and prepare for the Embedded Assessments. These portfolios are not collected after each assignment; they may not be collected for review until there are several assignments that have been completed.
Dates are posted in the "Homework" section when portfolios are being collected. Once portfolios are collected it takes a few days to get all of them graded. Check the "Homework"  section for the SpringBoard pages that have been assigned and the due dates for those assignments.

Email me if you are concerned about the "Missing Assignment" message when you visit Parent Connect and question whether or not your child has any missing grades.

Drama Production Class and Drama Club-  drama.jpg


Each student enrolled in drama production class is required to participate in the semesters theatre production at the end of the semester whether it is as an actor or a part of the stage crew.

 

Two weeks before opening night are our technical rehearsals and dress rehearsals (tech week). Students are required to participate in tech week which begins after school during that period. Rehearsals run from 3:00 PM until 7:00 PM. There are no activity buses available so transportation must be arranged ahead of time. Dinner is provided with the help of parents bringing food each night.

 

Parent volunteers are a very important component to the success of each theatre production. A parent letter is sent home the first day of drama production class and drama club students can get them from Ms Byrnes in room 117. Please take the time to fill this form out carefully. Drama club students must have a signed parent letter on file in order to participate in club activities.
