Welcome!

    I am glad you have come to visit the site.  This website is intended to serve my students and their parents by providing information that is helpful for success in my class. 

Homework is posted for each day when I post my lesson plans for the week.  When possible, I also post handouts or documents which are distributed in class. However, days do not always go as planned and we may not get as far, or we may cover more material than expected.  In these events, I adjust homework or due dates to reflect where the students are in "real time".  These changes may not always get posted to the website in a timely manner.  Ultimately, it is the student's responsibility to give attention in class and know what instructions have been given that day.   

On the website you will also find information about how grades are calculated and classroom rules and consequences.

I have added links for other tools which you may find helpful, such as the SAT Question of the Day and USATestPrep, an End of Course Examination prep site.

My schedule for Spring Semester 2010 is as follows:
     7:45 - 8:15 a.m.:    Extra Help in the Classroom
1st Block:    English I Honors
2nd Block:    Plannig
3rd Block:    English I Academy
    4th Block:    English I CP
          After School:    Conferences/Extra Help by Appointment

If there is additional information which you believe would be helpful, please feel free to contact me with your suggestions.  The purpose of this site is to contribute to the success of my students.  Ideas are always welcome.
