I invite you to check this blog on a daily basis as I will be posting valuable information about the classroom and the school - including daily homework assignments, important dates, classroom/school news, etc.

For your convenience, you can also sign-up to receive "daily updates" from this blog that automatically gets sent to your email every day there is a new posting. Simply type in your email address into the 'submit' box found on the right side of this blog.

More importantly, if you ever have any questions or concerns about your son/ daughter, please do not hesitate to contact me via phone, email, or this blog:

Our WE ACT Club has chosen to participate in the Free the Children "Brick by Brick" program. We are asking students to donate any spare change they have to support this cause. Also, the WE ACT Club will be selling bracelets throughout the year for $2.00. Their goal is to raise $10 000 by the end of the year - which will build a school in Haiti.
