So was I. Apparently tretbar didn't know what the hell she was talking about and these are books being mainly taken off the required school year reading list to make junior year easier. It would be like us reading The Glass Menagerie, A Night Thoreau Spent In Jail, and something else outside of class in order to make the school year easier. It's NOT on top of our junior load so that makes me happy. my mom specifically asked if this was in addition to the stuff junior year or if it was taken from junior year and tretbar said additional which is totally wrong.

ack. thats not really fair. because i've been all worked up and steaming over this, and then they're just changing what was sent out in the NEWSLETTER. silly silly administrators and their silly ways of making every single sophomore flip out.

I know! I talked with Mr. Maack and he said it was intentionally vague so we wouldn't worry. And, I was like well you did exactly the opposite and people are pissed. Anyway, the administrators didn't change their mind. Tretbar wrote the newsletter and just didn't know what she was talking about apparently. The same thing happened when my Mom called her. URGH!!!!!!!
