Welcome to the 2015-2015 School Year

I hope that you are settling in to your new school year nicely.  I look forward to a productive year of learning together.

I will post homework on this page until the Aviationhs.net website is up and running.  I will inform you when the switch takes place.

Please note that I will be posting homework for three courses: FSN31, EEN43R, and EEN42.  Be sure that you are only looking at the homework posted for your own class.  If there is no homework for the day, there will be no header with your class on it.  I will also post the homework in class.
