Mr. Nguyen typically hands out an assignment at the summer homework meeting; I'm sure you kids have it.  Get in touch with your counselors or with me if you need any more information and we will run it down for you.

When everything is posted, I will update this page letting you know that we are 100% up and accurate.

Thanks, Everybody.  You can contact your counselors Ms. Lane, Ms. Ozier and Ms. Young for more information, or email me directly -- I maintain this blog for the AP and Honors Summer Homework program at Mayfair High School; any error or confusion most likely originates with me.
