Note to all AP Lang students

Final grades are submitted and finalized at this time. Please do not email me asking me to bump your grades up. I cannot and will not do it. I never made any promises to bump up your grades at the semester mark, and my syllabus never stated it either. I put in your extra credit, curved the final, and chose to put the essay that most of you did better on into your final grade. There is nothing more I can or will do now without compromising the integrity of this class. Thank you.
