Dear Parents and Students,

Welcome to my class! I am so pleased and honored to be their English Language Arts teacher and/or Reading teacher this year! Our lessons will be geared toward teaching lifelong reading and writing skills. We will learn by using both the Chromebook and online lessons as well as the traditional paper-based writing practice and reading selections. 

The district grading policy will be followed. Daily grades will count for 50% and test grades will also count for 50% of the grade. Makeup work will be allowed and encouraged as needed. 

I will be inviting all of my students to tutorials this year. Each tutorial lesson is a chance for enrichment and growth. Please support the efforts for the extra time as needed for this practice and enrichment. 

Feel free to contact me during my planning from 10:10 a.m. to 11:05 a.m. at 473-7354. You can also email me at cmcma85@uisd.net. If you leave a message by phone or email, I will contact you as soon as possible. 

Let’s work together for your child’s success! 

Sincerely,

Ms. Suzie McManus
