Hi, and welcome to Mr. Quinn's Class dot com. That's me in the picture. The bald one.

I am a teacher at Noble High School in North Berwick, Maine. I'm teaching sophomore algebra and geometry as well as a section of statistics this year.

This page is intended to be a central place for access to information that might be useful to students and parents, with news, assignments, and other class-related content. Links are to the right, news is below. Enjoy!

Welcome back! I hope your thanksgiving breaks were all enjoyable, and that you're ready to get back to work!

Algebra begins a two-week overview (much too short, i think) of probability and statistics. Statistics, on the other hand, continues its look at theoretical probability. Good times!

It's a short week, and next week is thanksgiving, so let's keep our focus and soon we'll get our first real substantial break in the year.

Algebra is going to be graphing and working with quadratics, and statistics will continue our look at theoretical probability.

For those of you keeping track, this week marks the halfway point in the semester. In algebra, we're going to learn three ways of doing the same thing, two of which are useful, and in statistics, we'll turn to probability.

Students of the Week!

Last week, our most impressive performances were turned in by Gayla Kazan, who turned in a very solid assessment related to factoring, and Carson Waterman, who is producing great work, showing evidence of increasing her knowledge, and helping out her peers. Good work, and keep it up.
