Looking to the Spring

Wow! The Fall semester is over and I'm psyched about the coming Spring semester. Teaching Regents is tough. Many of my students seemed to give up near the end of the semester when I thought they should have been gearing up for the exam. I'm sure test anxiety had a lot to do with that. Out of 94 students who sat for the exam, 55 passed. That's 59%. A few of them, reportedly, had meltdowns in the testing room. I'll speak with those students and try to assuage their anxiety for June. Congratulations to all of my brave students! I know it's tough.
