Math syllabus

Parents,

Above you will find attached a link with the class syllabus.  I have personally went over every aspect of the syllabus with your child.  Please ask them if they have questions concerning the information herein as they may have neglected to ask a question during class.  Please sign and date the syllabus and return it to me at your earliest convenience.  This is an easy way for your student to start the year off right with an A+ for merely having it in their Math Notebook with your signature.

If you have individual questions or concerns concerning the syllabus please contact me at bhayes@mcsdga.net so that we may discuss modification on a case by case basis.  Please notify me with your concern no later than than the end of the first week of school (13 August 2010).

Thank you,

Mr. Hayes
