Hi Sunshine, I noticed you only have a couple of days left on this challenge. Do you think you might be able to squeeze any more books in or do you want to declare it done and claim "Junior High" level? :)

[Sunshine✰✰✰]

I just updated my post. I'm reading a book right now that will let me finish out Choir/Band, for a total of 10 classes. I'll get to High School! Woo-Hoo!

I'll let you know once I finish that. :-)

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

As this challenge was posted by a past mod, until we give it a makeover and re-post it, we are unable to edit the instruction post to add the following new rule.

**When you finish a challenge you must post to say that you are done and re-post your entire challenge so that I can check which level you completed etc.

If you don't do this, you will not be considered to have completed the challenge and will not be awarded the 'Hall of Fame' badge for that challenge.

(Even if you don't hit the level you were aiming for by the deadline, please re-post your challenge anyway as you may still be eligible for a lower level badge.)**

Thank you :)

[Yvonne]
