About Me....
My name is Mrs. Butchyk and I have been here at the Villages Charter Middle School for 1.5 years. My husband and I moved here with our daughter Brynn, who is now a sophmore at VHS in January of 2025 from central Virginia and we feel very blessed to be a part of the Buffalo Family. We also have 3 boys, a daughter in law and a grandson whom live and work in 3 different states on the east coast. I have been teaching math for 10 years and I have been a teacher for 21 years. 2 years ago I earned my Masters degree from Liberty University as a math specialist and I am so excited to implement everything I have learned into the classroom.
When I am not teaching you will find me biking, hiking, lifting weights or just spending time with my family. I am really looking forward to meeting all of my new students and I look forward to a wonderful year!!

Welcome to 6th Grade Math!!! How exciting!!!
Welcome to the 2026-2027 school year and to 6th grade math. I am so excited about the opportunity to spend time with the students in class and to teach math. The math that we will be learning this year will be so essential to a successful future in whatever career they choose. It is my goal to provide a classroom environment where each student can excel.
Please ensure your students come to class prepared and ready to learn. Below are the items that each student needs to bring to class on the first day.

2” 3-ring binder with clear front pouch and pockets with dividers
Pencil pouch to hold supplies
Pencils

Things to Know for a Successful Year
6th Grade Accelerated Students and 6th Grade Regular Students
Please make sure your students have wired headphones in class everyday as well as a pencil and thier binder!
Review: Your students have access to khan Academy, IXL, iReady and ALEKS. All of these applications can review both new and old content and are expected to be used to review material.
Corrections: If your student wishes to make corrections on classwork or a quiz. I now have a correction form for them. It is located on their google drive under materials or I have hard copies in the room for them to have. This will make it easier for both myself and them so I can see what problems they are reworking.
Missing Assignments: Students must complete my missing work form located on thier Google Classroom and any assignment that is missing must be completed by the before the quiz or test on the unit. Missing assignments for non absences will be graded as per our schools late policy.
Extra Credit: If I assign extra credit the score will always be out of 0. The reason for this is to make sure that the extra credit is a help to them and not something that brings their score down. I do not always do extra credit but I have told them if I do, take advantage because it will only help your grade.
ALEKS: I wanted to give a few directions for how to get into ALEKS in case any questions arise at home. In order to get into the program, students need to go to Clever, McGraw Hill (it is a red colored app), and then click on ALEKS.
When they are in ALEKS they will click on continue my path. If they cannot do the lesson that was suggested, they can click on the down arrow under the name of the current lesson name and they can choose whatever 10 topics they would like. They have from Monday-Sunday evening to get all 10 topics completed.
They will be given 10 points for every topic completed. If they forget to do some on 1 week and do extra the next the grade will even out for them, so for ALEKS you might see points over 100.
I am looking forward to a fantastic year!
