This blog will be used as a means to maintain contact between school, parents, and students. By subscribing to the class blog ("Follow by Email" on the right side of the page), you will receive an email update between 3 and 5 p.m. every day (I will do my best...).
Mission Statement
Mission Statement: My classroom is a place where students should feel welcome: everyone should feel free to learn and participate without worrying about put-downs
or soul-crushing gossip.
