The internet has been temperamental at school and has not always been up and running at the time when assignments would be posted. FairPoint is aware of these problems and is trying to resolve them in a timely manner. Sorry for any inconvenience. This is a perfect example, however, of why it's a good idea for students to record assignments on Stickies, iCal, or in an assignment book, in addition to checking into the blog.
