Homework and announcements

Here are the homework assignments for Algebra 2. Most of them refer to handout packets; copies of these handouts are available to you by logging into the FirstClass system.

Assignments will generally be added to this page daily, but if an assignment is given in class but doesn't get posted here for whatever reason, you're still responsible for it.
