Welcome Back!

I hope everyone had a good first day back to school. I think it is going to be a productive year! No classes have homework this evening. However, students did receive a syllabus/class expectations for my class today. Students and parents need to read over these, sign the form, and students need to have it returned by Tuesday. I did not have 7th grade today because of homeroom, so they will receive this tomorrow.

Just a reminder of the supplies needed for my class:

English 7-9 - Pencils and loose-leaf paper, 3-ring binder (1 1/2 inches works best), 4 dividers - Binders need to be ready for use by Friday, Aug. 13.
*Tissues and hand sanitizer may be brought in for bonus points. These need to be turned in by Friday, August 13.

Journalism & Broadcast Media - A Folder and a notebook, or a small binder with loose-leaf paper. Either will be fine.


Also, the school forms need to be returned to the office by Tuesday.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. I usually update this site daily with homework. I hope this will be a fantastic year!
