Hello Parents!

Welcome to high school. I am looking forward to a wonderful year with your children. It is truly an
honor to teach them. Ninth grade is perhaps the most important year in high school. This is the year
your teenagers will establish learning habits that will see them through to graduation. My goal is to
help them build habits of mind that will enable them to become successful, high achieving
democratic citizens capable of using technology responsibly, making complex decisions and reading
challenging texts.

In order to meets these goals, I need your help. I need you to talk to your students about what is
happening at school. If you are available, volunteer to help out in the classroom as an AVID tutor,
clerical aid or guest speaker. Participate in special events we hold in class. There are many things you
can do to support your students as they transition into high school.

Most, if not all, of my lesson plans and handouts will be posted here in my virtual classroom. Click
the student tab to access what we are doing in class. Do not hesitate to call or email me if you have
questions or would like additional resources.

Here's to a great year!
