It's November!

Hey volunteers - time is flyin by! Below are a few reminders as we enter the holiday season:

Many school districts will have the entire week of November 23rd off for Thanksgiving. If this is the case, you will need to skip this week and pick up where you left off the week of November 30th with your class.

It's a good idea to try to get your class completed by Friday, December 18th, which is the last day most schools are in session before the winter break. However, the Fall semester does carry over into January. If you find that you will need to complete your class in January, please start discussing this with your teacher now to get those dates on the calendar.

Please contact us at any time if you have questions about your class. Thank you so much for volunteering this Fall!
