  8. Get in the right frame of mind: • Close your eyes and listen. Then on your paper, answer the following prompt: • VISUALIZE: What If.....You did not graduate. How would your parents other role model (ie coaches, pastors, etc) feel? How would the people who look up to YOU feel (ie younger siblings, cousins, etc)? Write 3-5 complete sentences.

  10. Biology EOCT Trend Data Last year, Ms. Nay’s classes had a 58% pass rate.

  11. Answer the following question in a complete sentence in your notes (2 min): How does Forest Park’s pass rate compare to the district of Clayton County? How do you think this compares to the rest of the state, the country, and the world?

  12. After looking at the data… • I don’t think a 47.5% passing rate is good enough, and I know you all are smart enough to do better. • With enough hard work, I want you all to be able to pass the EOCT, pass this class, graduate, and go on to greater things.
