Grades

I made an alphabetical spreadsheet with your Double-double quiz and Christmas Blessing points on it. It's alphabetical, then I took a few letters of your first name and reversed them. 

This does not show your overall grade as it's not the real gradebook.  But it should help you get an idea of recent scores. 

Any blank is a 0, a.k.a., academic suicide (if not resolved quickly). 

Link to your recent scores.

Enjoy,
