The FCAT Writing+ test will be given to all 10th graders next Tuesday, Feb. 12. 2008. All students who were first time 9th graders last year MUST pass this test in order to graduate.

If you are not sure of where to report ask one of your teachers. Students are NOT allowed to be in possession on ANY electronic device during testing. Failure to follow the electronic devices policy WILL result in test invalidation.
Students who attend 2 consecutive tutoring sessions will earn a MLEC credit card. Make sure you sign in for tutoring.
Points earned on the MLEC credit card can be use for detention passes, free lunch, and tickets to various MLEC school events!
Remember Juniors you have an opportunity to go on a special class trip by earning 30 points through Saturday tutoring or earning a 3 or higher on the science FCAT!

The 2008 Miami National College Fair will be held Sunday, February 17, 2008, from Noon - 4 p.m. at the Sheraton Miami Mart Hotel, 777 N.W. 72nd Avenue. Don’t miss this invaluable opportunity to meet over 100 college representatives from around the country. Also, information sessions in English, Spanish and Creole, will be given throughout the day on topics such as “paying for college”, financial aid, scholarships, and more. For more information or if you need help with transportation, see Ms. Mathos by noon Feb. 6.
MLEC would like to thank Ms. Soto and her graphic arts club students for their rendering of “The Wall of Fame” located in Building E. The following students showed dedication and service to their school by devoting hours of their own personal time to complete this display – Viviana Lopez – Massiel Infante – Janeth Barradas – and Luis Uzquategi. Thank you again for sharing your jaguar pride.
Students with absences, remember if you have 5 unexcused absences in an annual course, or 3 unexcused absences in a semester course, you will receive a no credit for the class. We are in a block schedule, therefore 5 unexcused absences in an annual course WILL result in 10 unexcused absences and WILL result in a no credit issued, 3 unexcused absences in a semester course will equal six and a no credit. Remember if you are absent you MUST bring a note and receive an admit in student services to excuse your absence. Do not be absent unnecessarily. Students arriving tardy to school will be required to serve an Administrative Detention. BE ON TIME!!! AND COME TO SCHOOL EVERYDAY!!! Students with perfect attendance for the entire school year will have the opportunity to win a very special prize. If you have any questions please speak to Mrs. Forteza.
The Principal’s Word of the Day is
