My new goal is to do much better at daily updates.  We are now half way through the school year.  Second trimester mid term grades close on the 25th of January, so parents will recieve grade reports soon.

A new and exciting program will debut in March.  Students are going to be presenting their work as they lead parent conferences.  These conferences will occur in the last week of March, after CMTs are completed.

I respond to email pretty quickly, so please feel free to use the link to the school district's webmail system.  Students and parents will find this is an effective way to contact most teachers in Manchester.

I am most anxious to respond to your needs, so please let me know what I can do do make this eighth grade year successful for both students and parents.  Please do not hesitate to email with a concern or question.  Call the school and leave a message for me or a member of the team.  Only through communication can we help your student achieve to the highest potential.
