Dear Parent/Guardian: It is so hard to believe that the summer has come to an end and that it is time for a new school year to begin. I am pleased to have your child in my classroom this year. I invite you to take an active role in your child’s education. Please feel free to visit our classroom during the school year, just stop by the office to pick up a visitor’s pass. If you need to contact me by phone or for a conference, I will be available daily from 12:45-1:30. The school secretary schedules all conferences. If you would like to schedule a conference, please call the school office at 716-3890. I would like to remind you social studies is part of the PASS testing program for all seventh graders and the scores will be reflected on our school report card. Later this fall, you will receive your child’s test results from last year. Once again I am excited to have your child in my classroom and I look forward to having a productive year filled with many learning opportunities. I also look forward to meeting you if I have not already done so. If you have internet access, I invite you to e-mail me if you have questions or concerns regarding your child. My e-mail address is wendyjohnson@anderson5.net Thank You!
