Remember four things: 1) "Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country." JFK 1961,
2)... Govt of the people, by the people, for the people..." Lincoln 1863,
3) "What I hear I forget, what I see I remember, what I do I understand.” Confucius 451 BCE, and 4) "Voting intelligently is the most important citizen responsibility- it is also the most important right (freedom) you have." Mr. Achs 2003.

Grades
Login for new Campus Portal: http://www.davenportschools.com/parents/ICPortal.asp Please see the info hperlink above for more details. Note: Grades are unofficial and will be real-time (I update grades at least once a week). Grades are also posted in the classroom for students to review. If you need additional help with Campus Portal, please contact the main office or your student’s guidance counselor. The official gradebook will still be the normal manual copy I keep on my desk.
Parents: Stay involved with your student’s education, ask about assignments and grades, and ask to see their work. Students: Set your goals and expectations high, you can do it, success is in your grasp. My goal is to help each student be successful. More importantly, high school is more than just academics; it’s about extra-curricula activities (sports, band, choir, clubs), relationships (friendships), and growing up (life experiences.) The key values for success are LDRSHIP: Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless-Service, Honor, Integrity, and Personal Courage. Welcome again, remember I care, and GO FALCONS!
Special Note: What to do if the student needs help in my class: 1) See me for help (before/after school), 2) Ask Mr. Achs to assign a “Class Buddy” to help, 3) Request a guided study hall, 4) See your Academic Counselor (386-5500).
See the class schedule for Parent-Teacher conference date & time. Parents are welcomed to attend class and/or see me anytime.
Remember, my goal is to help your student be successful in my class!
