Atmosphere: Ms. Vinson takes time to carefully craft each lesson to ensure students are learning each and everyday.

Expectations: Students will bring binder, paper, and pencil to class each day. They will take responsibility for their actions inside and outside of the classroom. Bullying and/or using unkind words or actions will not be tolerated to ensure the classroom remains a safe, positive environment for all learners.
