Hi and welcome to the 15-16 school year!
My hope is that this website can make communication easier between all of us and foster another way to keep you posted when you aren't in my classroom. My goal for next year is to utilize technology as much as possible, so this website will be one that you should bookmark.
For the school year 15-16 I will be teaching one class of junior literature, three sections of AP Language and Composition, and the freshman/sophomore AVID elective. I have 19 years of teaching experience; 10 at the middle school, two years overseas in Thailand, and seven at the high school level.
I strongly believe that we are all partners in your education and I will do anything I can to help make your experience a rich, interesting, and fulfilling one. Please let me know how I can help. My job is to make sure that you are being challenged, that you are learning, and that you are meeting standards, and my goal is to do all of this and still have fun. I believe that this can be achieved in a number of ways, so please don't hesitate to ask for an alternative assignment, or a different explanation, or a chance to demonstrate your learning in an alternate form.
