  Regarding the three days March 11 thru March 13, please understand that over ten percent of my students will be absent due to the school band's competition trip to Indianapolis, and that does not include any other students who may be ill or absent for personal reasons. For me to present new material would be unfair to all parties concerned. We will begin Unit 9 on Monday, March 16, when everyone is back. Thus if you have pressing personal, family, or medical business that needs your attention, I suggest you will lose less of your education if you take care of it this week.
