Math: There will be a pre-algebra test on Friday, 2/17/17. Students should study each type of problem until they have mastered it. If they do not know how to solve a type of problem, they should see Mrs. Carmine or Mrs. Haynes after school on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday. Practice is the best way to study for a math test!
