  • All material having to do with Sheldon’s AP Biology class has been put on hold, but  stay tuned for updates.  There is a staff meeting on Monday, March 30 and I should have better idea about when/how the class will restart after the meeting.
  • The AP Test is still going to be administered!  Hopefully you got an email from the College Board, if not you can check the link on the Sheldon home page.  You can use that to start reviewing now for the test. 
  • Take care!!!
