DBQ Workshop Dates
As stated in the syllabus, students are required to attend DBQ workshops (2) each quarter. I had mentioned the possibility of only requiring 1 workshop for the first quarter, but looking back at last year's schedule, we were able to provide enough opportunities for 2 sessions per student. To be clear, each student is expected to attend 2 DBQ workshops. This will count as a major assessment. If these dates do not work, please see Mr. Beller.
Workshops are from 2:40-3:45. Students coming in after 2:40 will be turned away.
