Welcome!
This is my twelfth year teaching at New Horizons School. Since 2015, I have taught grades 1, 5, and 6. This year, I will be teaching ELA 7, Math 7, LECA (Language Exploration and Cultural Appreciation) 7, Social Issues 8, and ALPS 7-9 (formerly IPP). I am also the school's Learning Support Teacher, providing enrichment and gifted education support for the staff and student body.
Assignments, upcoming assessments, and due dates can be found on Google Classroom. Grades, when available, can be found on Google Classroom and/or PowerSchool.
Each month, an update will be posted for each class. Please go to the class-specific pages (linked below) to view.
Self-Advocacy: As students move into junior high, a primary goal is to teach them to advocate for themselves and their learning. If students would like to ask for extra help, do corrections on an assignment, or ask for extra credit or a retest, they can advocate for themselves by emailing their teacher (an email template is provided on all of my Google Classrooms).
Email is the most effective method of communication. If communicating something time-sensitive (ie: change in pick-up), please call the school at 780-416-2353.
