Parents and Students to the 2011-2012 school year. You are about to embark on a
very important year in your educational career. You are not quite a middle
school student, but the expectations put on you are much more than a normal
elementary school student. You are going to have good days, and bad. You are
going to make a lot of friends, and probably lose a few. Through the entire
experience there will be two things that will be constant from day one to the
last day. One, you will be learning many new concepts that you will use in your
life. The second is the support you will find in the entire staff at Trailside,
including me!
We are a family in this community and we work together in
this community every day. We need to make sure we have fun and respect
everyone. School should be safe, and this classroom is no different. No
bullies are allowed and no bullying is tolerated.
Our school motto is
"Expect to Learn. Respect Everyone." I highly believe in this and hold all
students to this standard. Good luck to you this year. You will be surprised
when you look back at how much you have changed at the end of the year. I am
here to make sure you learn, respect, feel safe, and of course have fun
learning. Get ready!
