Message: Hello. This is a message from Mr. Devine, your student's Advanced ELD teacher. Your student has not turned in his/her writing assignment, and this is having a seriously negative impact on his/her grade. Your student needs to find time on a computer to type his/her paragraphs. The Night Library computers are available most days from 3pm to 6pm. Please have your child complete his/her work so he/she can pass Advanced ELD. This writing assignment is a part of a large writing project and your student must keep up with his/her work in order to ensure that he/she will pass the class. Thanks very much, Mr. Devine.
