Return to Learn - DA 10 Humanities

Many of you have asked me for the details about pictures and school materials pick up and that info is in the Return to Learn info from your principal.  I'm including those links below.  If you are in DA Humanities and weren't able to get your materials from me last week then be sure to mention you need your DA bag from me at pick up.

Jefferson Return to School Info 


If you are in my DA 10 History class I made some changes to my schedule for week one so please use this one.  This also has the link for our class meets.
