WELCOME BACK, LANGUAGE ALL-STARS!
I hope you all had an awesome vacation full of plenty of laughs, rest and fun! I also hope that you had some time to do some reflection and reset your head for school. It's nice to have a break to allow us to refresh and hit the reset button, but now it's time to get to work. We only have two weeks until progress reports go home. Good news? We have only six weeks of school until February vacation! So, it's time get your heads in the game, my friends! We have no time for dilly-dallying!
