Google Classroom
We will be using Google Classroom for important information and assignments. The most up to date information will be posted on Google Classroom. Parents wanting to access their student's GC, will need to log in using their child's information. All assignments will be posted on the Google Calendar, which can be viewed below. Addtionally, assignments can be located in your student's Google Classroom with an updated agenda every week.

Contacting Me

I am very responsive to emails. I will get back to you as soon as possible. Typically this will be during my planning period. Since I have very limited time for phone calls, I will typically send an email or use Parent Square. Your student's success is always my number one goal, so please do not hesitate to ask any questions or reach out to me.
