Over the course of the first semester, I will try to make available as many documents as possible for student use. The documents are grouped by Unit or category and include a date posted. Most of the documents will be available using Google Drive. At this moment, I am making the documents public to anyone using the link below. By making these documents available to my students I must remind users that these documents are for student use only and are the intellectual property of Mr. Kubuske and Cathedral High School. All notes can be viewed from my YouTube channel.
Note: Any items in Grey will not be used this school year
