IMPORTANT INFO

I primarily use Google Classroom and Schoolloop as my means of communication between students, parents/guardians and myself. I have linked the Google Classroom below for Term 1 for the 2020 - 2021 school year. The code for this term's class is sha36ia. You WILL need to register for Google Classroom using your FUSD Google accounts as it will contain important information regarding assignments, projects, lectures, etc. Parents, if you wish you join as well, shoot me an email and I can add you.

I also upload all of my lectures onto Youtube for students to have access to. You will need a direct link to the videos and playlists because I don't want to get copyrighted for music/video infringement.
