Welcome!

If you do your best, what else can anyone demand of you?

Learning to put forth our best effort in all areas is one of the hardest lessons to learn, but it is also one of the most rewarding throughout the course of our lifetimes. Doing our best is not a guarantee of victory or material success, indeed, only one person can win a race. Yet, giving the best of which we are capable should never leave us with regrets about our efforts.

In my classes, all of my students are expected to put forth their best effort each day. Circumstances may not always be our allies, but a character devoted to offering the best will overcome nearly any obstacle in time.

I provide your child some of the innovative technologies that will offer them greater opportunities in their high school years as well as preparing them for the rigors of the college and workplace experience. All of the online work will involve using Schoology.com for my ELA10 and POE students. All students are expected to bring their Chromebook to class, everyday, once they have received them. Students must use their devices responsibly at all times while in class.
 
To help both parents and students keep up with class updates or other important information, I do recommend enrolling in the class Remind texting service. There are two separate courses: one for ELA10 (@ela10-472, and for POE (@poe-772). Please be sure to register for the correct one.
 
Parents, I invite you to email me any concerns or questions you may have about these added features of my classes. Be sure access and view your child's Schoology activities through your Parent Schoology access code.
 
I am usually available to answer questions through email: [email protected].
I try to respond to all emails within three or four hours. Expect longer delays after 8pm and on the weekends.
