My educational philosophy:

      I believe that education should enrich the lives of my students intellectually, personally, and socially. 

 

   1)  Treat others with respect at all times.

   2)  Always do the best you are capable of doing.

 

 

    This is a year of tremendous personal growth for students.  It is expected that students will monitor their own learning, study for tests, seek help when needed, and turn in their work on time.   

    Some students may have difficulties with study skills at the beginning of the year, but tend to make huge gains in this area as the year progresses.  Regularly checking your child's Skyward and Google Classroom accounts are great ways to tell if your child is staying current with their schoolwork.

       I update grades in Skyward frequently in an effort to clearly communicate progress with students and parents.  This is also a great help for students who have been absent.  Please check Skyward to see what is missing.
