Important Reminder
This is an important reminder that your IRP materials are due to me (in my hands only) on December 20, which is the last day of the quarter and semester. I will not be accepting any late materials.

Grades for quarter two are due on Wednesday, January 3. I will not be issuing any incopmpletes unless you have a viable medical excuse that is communicated by your parents to the front office.

Let me state this another way: I will not be accepting any materials for the IRP project after 12:00 Noon on Thursday, December 20. If you only have the project partially completed at
that time, you should turn in what you have for partial credit.

If you would like to turn in your materials to me during the exam period, that is also perfectly acceptable.

Turning in the project
1. You should have all materials printed, stapled, and bull-clipped to turn in to me.
2. You should deposit all files on the X-drive at:

    Teacher Folders/Rose/A2-IRP (or A3-IRP)

You must name your five files as follows:
    last name-1-EIE essay
    last name-2-SIFT
    last name-3-Passage Analysis 
    last name-4-AP Exam
    last name-5-Analytical Essay

So, if your name is Mark Bugada, for example, your files would be:
    Bugada-1-EIE essay
    Bugada-2-SIFT
    Bugada-3-Passage Analysis 
    Bugada-4-AP Exam
    Bugada-5-Analytical Essay
