 Notes for Grade 11 parents:

30 MAR 26: Email sent to parents about Gaudeamus igitur.

20 FEB 26: See me. If your child gets a "See me" note on a quiz or assignment, that means there is a learning topic (usually small) that needs to be clarified promptly. Besides the Wednesday "Latin Clinic", I am available, no appointment needed, in the faculty lunch room (or, if it is too noisy, in Room 356) during student lunch breaks on MON, WED, and FRI, and on WED immediately after the principal's dismissal prayer. A meeting will run no more than 10-15 minutes. I record who has a See me and when it is satisfied, but it is the student's responsibility to initiate the meeting with quiz or assignment in hand.

10 FEB 26. Email sent to parents about reorganizing webpage for parent (and student) consultation and progress monitoring.

19 OCT 25. Email sent to parents about arrangements for optional parent-teacher conference.

14 SEP 25. Email to parents about optional 'Latin Clinic' on Wednesdays.

08 SEP 25. We are starting Collins' Primer.

25 AUG 25. We will use Collins Primer. Copies are available for students. The first couple classes are intended to give me a sense of what the students already know, and we'll set off from there, with plenty of writing practice in the Red Notebooks.

 Agenda singulatim.

19 OCT 25. Email sent to parents about arrangements for optional parent-teacher conference and notice of links to prayer pronunciation models.

03 OCT 25. Beginning next week, I will be able to meet with students three (not just two) days per week, MON, WED, and FRI, by switching study hall time with Latin's. This is a far preferable schedule for youth Latin learning! Meanwhile, thank you so much to Domina Votel for taking the TUE time slot and making good use of that time for practice.

14 SEP 25. Email to parents about optional 'Latin Clinic' on Wednesdays.

13 SEP 25. There is a quiz (probatio parva) every Friday; students get results on following Monday.

08 SEP 25. We are now starting Henle. Students need to have Henle FIST YEAR with them for every class. They also need to have accessible, either at home or at school, but not in class, Henle GRAMMAR.

25 AUG 25. We will use Henle, First Year Latin, as previously arranged. The first couple classes are intended to give me a sense of what the students already know, and we'll set off from there, combining Henle and Christian Latin usage. Domina Votel, an experienced Latin teacher, meets with students on Tuesdays and — in the spirit of Repetitio est mater studiorum (Repetition is the mother of learning) — provides them with a directed practice period and homework help on the materials being cover that week. Agimus tibi magnas gratias, Domina Votel!
