Dear Parents and Students,
We are well underway with meeting our learning objectives for this school year. The weather is finally cooling off, and we know what's coming. I hope students are starting to settle into the routine of managing all their courses and scheduling due dates as necessary. At this point, I expect students to set time aside for English homework. At least 20 minutes each night should be dedicated to completing in-class work (if necessary) and most of all READING! At this point in time, I want to wish everyone a great year ahead and remind students and parents to e-mail me with any questions. I check e-mails several times per day, including a reasonable time before bed. I am happy to report that our first assignment was well received, and I am enjoying reading the personal essays students have handed in so far.
