Homeroom: This week we're doing the Title IX stuff and going over study tips.
ALL Advanced Visual Art People:

• Go over your proposal progress with Ms. Schmit or Mr. Wilson before the end of the week- also organize all your progress documentation in a google doc- be ready to share it at some point with someone!
• If you need them again click HERE for your Instructions, this includes 2D MMA, Ceramics, Sculpture, Metals and Fibers, Printmaking etc. If it wasn't obvious before: the main media you need to work with needs to correspond to the course you are taking ;-). It's ok to explore the same ideas in multiple media but you'll need to keep that in mind if you are working for various classes.
