1st - People absent to the test

Hello, everyone.

For some reason I can´t find Chiara´s email on my account.  And I want to talk to her so we can arrange a new date for the exam.

So, Chiara, if you see this, send me an email at ayelen.paolino@orangeschool.com.ar.

If someone else sees this, please let her know she should send me an email.

Thank you!
