2022 - 2023 School Year

Welcome Students

In my class you can look forward to taking a big step toward independence. That's important because 5th grade is the last grade before middle school and the grade that puts you into the "older" half of the school. If you work hard, you can look forward to having a lot of fun. My classroom is a relaxed environment with simple expectations. Come in with a positive attitude towards meeting new people, learning new things and facing all challenges head on. We will work together to grow as learners, humans and people of a respected community. If you're lucky you might get to shoot on my mini basketball hoop, take a pick from the prize box or earn a whole class party! One kid last year even got to pie me in the face! I look forward to the new adventure every year and class brings!

Greetings Parents
