Grades Are Posted - Do Not Panic

Hi Everyone -
I have posted grades that I have "sifted" through the 175 emails.  We will have a new system next week however for this week:
1. If I missed anyone please resend the assignment 
2. If you did not do the assignment send with an explanation
3. If you are in LA 7 and Chapter 12 was with your original answers please just resend -
Again we are all do our best - I trust you to do yours and I am doing mine - I will fix or work with you on assignments that are either not posted correctly by me or you have not completed.
See you Thursday - your invite will be in your email tomorrow morning.

LA/7 Announcements Periods 1,2,3,5 Week of April 13-17 **Please Read Carefully***

Good Morning,
I trust you all had a nice weekend and if you celebrated Easter it was lovely if not quite normal.  I have some announcements for everyone on this post then will be posting assignments on the next post.
 
1.  I have had numerous emails regarding grading and if I received your comprehension questions, letters etc.  I have had many of you demand that I fix your grade because you sent your assignment in.
 
Please realize the following:
I have over 250 emails still pending - to open and read and post grades.  As might imagine it is a huge task and I will complete all of this by tomorrow at 3.
Please realize that I was creating instructional videos for you this morning and participated in a Zoom meeting with District this morning as well.  I have a myriad of duties on top of your grading.
 
For those of you waiting for assignments for the week I had to wait until my assignment was given to me by the Zoom meeting until I could post - I will do that as soon as I am done here.
 
I know you guys are going through a lot.  I am too.  I have never "cheated" a student out of the grade they deserved nor have I ever ignored emails sent to me in 19 years....so please take it easy on me.
 
I am doing beyond my best to get you all what you need in a time of crisis.  I will prevail and so will you.  Let's all start with the word "please" and end with "thank you" when you send emails - Additionally, when I give a 12:00 deadline for assignments to be due please DO NOT post your assignment at 9 PM. Post them when they are due...and not three days late.  Be respectful of my time please and I will respect yours.
 
The next set of assignments will be posted in 10 minutes.
Stay well,
Respectfully,
Mrs. Leibfried
