Enrichment Overview 

The time has come, Freshmen, to draw the year to a close. Honesty, a school year unlike any we have ever seen; a school year impossible to predict. During these last few days of the year, Ms. Syes and Mr. Tidyman would like to say thank you to all those students who have engaged with the weekly materials, who have participated in Schoology activities, and who have reached out to us to maintain a connection of care and kindness. The last month and a half have been difficult for everyone, in a variety of ways, but being away from the building has reminded us how much we miss you, and the times we had in class. 

Ms. Syes and Mr. Tidyman have only a few last educational opportunities to offer you in these final days, in reviewing the material we have shared with you this quarter. Use the links below to re-visit the story of Odysseus, and to test your memory of Mythology. There will be no exam, but of course, you knew that. 

For our very last Office Hours of this year, we would like to invite any and all Freshmen to pop in, ask any last questions, and say goodbye! Ms. Syes and Mr. Tidyman will be saying goodbye as well, and previewing information about the Summer Reading selections for rising Sophomores.
