The start of school is an exciting time for students, parents, teachers, and all members of the school community. Before we get started, let me express how thrilled I am to have you in my class for 6th grade. This is a learning environment, so we will question, think, and discover. If you don’t understand something, ASK! If you are still having difficulty, don’t be shy to ask again! Everyone is expected to be on time and prepared.
