Students:
I hope you have had a restful summer and you are ready to begin the new school year in 5th Grade.  I am excited to meet you as we set the stage for learning in our classroom. 

Our motto for this year is:
Be a S.T.A.R.
Student Taking Academic Responsibility

Parents:
A student is more successful in school when the parents are actively involved in their child's learning.  I hope you will use this website to keep up with what is going on in our classroom.  You will find what we are learning under "Class News", keep up with homework assignments and spelling words, and see what events are coming up by using the calendar and newsletter.  If you should have any questions during the year, please feel free to email me at the link at the bottom of this page.

Skyland Mission Statement:
