Fall 2013 Advanced Health Calendar

This is the course calendar. I will often remind you of upcoming dates, assignments, etc. but between this and the course syllabus it will be expected for you to learn to look over this calendar on a weekly basis and use it in conjunction with your planner. My advice is for you to learn to embrace what a calendar can do for your life . You can ask me when something is due or what we are doing for the day.but the resounding answer will always be to check this lovely document or the one available online. Become selfdirected! I reserve the right to call it tentative and will inform you should anything change.
