Welcome to Middle School!

Students are expected to take on much more responsibility especially keeping track of
assignments and tests. I cannot replace lost worksheet assignments.
Students are reminded daily to copy agenda information written on the board into their
agendas. Please check your child's agenda for homework and test information. A homework
assignment may change, so please check my website agenda daily.
Students are given ample time to complete assignments in class, during Advisory, and
aftercare (4:00 to 4:30 - teacher supervised) in the Media room. Your child should not have a
large amount of homework if he/she is using his/her time wisely. I do have walk in tutoring on
Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays.
I will put test dates on the calendar. So please check calendar on this website.
