Mr. Besse 5th Grade

Welcome to my website. I will do my best to keep updating this site, and adding new features. If there is something you would like to see on this site, let me know and I will see if I can add it.

Please feel free to contact me anytime you have questions or concerns about anything happening here at school, or let me know about something happening at home that you would like to make me aware of. I have always felt that open communication between parent, teacher, and student is the best way for students to be as successful as possible here at school.

I can be reached by note, e-mail ( mbesse@isd2899.k12.mn.us), phone at work (507-876-2213 ext. 2620), or phone at home (507-876-2510).

* IMPORTANT MESSAGES (call anytime): If there is ever any message that a student MUST get before the end of the school day, always make sure you talk directly with the office, me, or the child over the phone. Voice-mail and e-mails sometimes don't get through right away. If you have actually talk to me or your child, you know the message has been received.

**ON-LINE GRADES : I would like to strongly encourage all parents to take advantage of the school's web access to my grade book, through Schoology. This allows you and your child to see their current grade, scores on individual assignments and tests, and keep track of any missing assignments they may have. I have heard from several parents that use this on a regular basis, and they have found it to be an extremely valuable tool. It is a great way for you and your child to keep up to date on how he/she is doing with their school-work. To get signed up, just contact Shannon Olstad, in the 4-6 office (876-2213), and she will assist you.

(All End-of-Quarter Report Cards are found on-line at JMC.)
