Welcome

Dear Students and Families,                                                                     

Welcome to my class! I’m excited about the opportunity to get to know you, and I’m looking forward to a happy and productive school year.

Curriculum areas we will focus on this year are stated in the course syllabus.

My homework and grading policies are also enclosed in the syllabus.

 Studies show that parental involvement in a child’s education is one of the strongest indicators of student achievement. I hope you will make it a priority this year to attend as many school-sponsored events as possible.

Let’s work together to make this the best year ever!
