I hope you are as excited as I am about this school year. Your ninth grader is going to learn so much about themselves and about so many great subjects this year. They are going to be growing and taking on more responsibility, and all of this will be in preparation for what awaits them in their future.

This year is going to be full of reading, writing, fun activities and projects, and responsibility. Because this is a year of transition into high school, your student will be expected to take on the task of learning to manage their work. I recognize that this is a process, and in order for them to be successful they must first learn how to do this. Therefore, I will be posting all classroom work and homework on Schoology to help them keep up with assignments and manage their responsibilities easier.
