The high-stakes CALPADS forms (which, on first glance, are confusing) are due this Wednesday, so please let me know if you have questions.

Also, your progress reports, assigned last Wednesday, are due, too.

Remember that we go back and forth between attendance reports and progress reports on Wednesdays, so start getting into the habit. You can always find forms on the Forms page.

Hi Advisees! You did a great job today taking your attendance seriously. Due next Wednesday is the Attendance Check-In Assignment. Be sure to have your parents sign it at the bottom of page 2.

See me with questions or if you want to do the assignment together.

Your progress reports are due this Wednesday, complete and signed by your parents.

Remember that there are two ways to fill out your progress report:

1. Ask your teacher,
2. Print out your grade report from www.mygradebook.com.

Ask your teacher for their classwork and password so that you can access your grades online. Better yet, link your grades — just like you did last year — to your universal My Gradebook account. That way, you can see all of your grades at the same time.

Beginning today, there are two new features on iseroma.com to help my advisees and their parents keep up with Advisory.

1. Assignments page! Check out the Isero Advisory page for a link to all Advisory assignments. If you ever miss class, here’s one way not to fall behind.

2. What We Did In Class page! Here are the official agendas of each Advisory. This is a great way to keep track of announcements, homework, and advisory activities, especially if you’re absent.

Please use these resources! If you have questions, email me at misero@leadershiphigh.org.

This post is just to remind you of the homework that is due this Friday.

1. Study for your syllabus quiz. It’s closed notes.

2. Complete NS Contracts. It’s the difference of 5 credits! See me for help.

3. Text me or email me at my 10-digit number@messaging.sprintpcs.com.

I hope you’re relaxing, my advisees. But make sure that you do your summer assignment, too. It’s worth 100 points for next year’s grade, and it’s due on the first day of Retreat. If you get stuck, call me or email me!

1. Reading. Read a book you’ve never read before. Then, type a 2-paragraph book review. Be sure to share it with me on Google Docs. Share it with markisero@lhssf.org. The assignment is on the Advisory page at www.iseroma.com. Here is the direct link.

2. Community Service. Ask yourself, “What is the one issue in my community that I care about?” Think about your community service this year. Think about the Junior Exhibitions. Think about your work in Leadership 1 and World Studies. Where do you want to make a difference? Then, find a community service placement for next year. If you can’t find anything, go to the Community Resources Guide on the San Francisco Public Library website, www.sfpl.org. Call the organization and set up your service for next year. When are you going to go? Wednesdays after school? Weekends? On the first day of Retreat, bring evidence that you have been accepted to do community service at the placement of your choice.

3. Do something productive that you are passionate about. Summer is about exploration. It’s about being productive. Don’t just watch TV. Get involved! On the first day of Retreat, be prepared to share one thing that you did over the summer that was significant and important to you.

Don’t procrastinate on this assignment! Start early, set up your summer, and have a great time. Get your rest, and get ready for sophomore year!
