Email Group
From time to time I send out general emails to parents as a way to let everyone know what's going on in class. Examples include: reminders of important assignment deadlines, information about special events, and requests for volunteers. I send the emails using the parent email address you entered in Aeries. If you are NOT getting these emails and want to, please let me know.

The Number ONE thing you can do for your student is help them get (and stay) organized.
Students who have loose papers, lose their papers which looses them points and lowers their grade! Here are some great resources for helping them have a system in place!
- Have a system (binder, pocket folders, Accordion File for Homework)
- Make sure they’re using their planner to record assignments!
- Choose a place where homework will be done, and if possible a regular time!
- Have a place to keep books and “graded work” that can be kept at home.

The Second Best thing you can do for your student is Check in Often.
- Ask to see their planner and their work!
- Ask about what they learned!
- Visit Aeries Parent Portal together and celebrate achievements and discuss missing or incomplete work.
- If they’re struggling, encourage them to sign up for help at lunch MWF or at lunch.

- The Class Blog has everything we did each day!!! Use it if your child doesn't know what to do for homework or if your child was absent.
- General Information has tons of information on class policies as well info about the class wish list and supplies.
- Office Hour Sign Ups - have your child sign up using their device! If they sign up under their own account the system will automatically send them a reminder.
