Have Fun Learning
1,2,3 Accountability * 4,5,6 Have Ethic
7,8,9 Empathy is Mine
Welcome everyone to SY 22-23. I am excited about the oasis of learning being offered to each student this year at TPJHS. I will be teaching 7/8 Math (Periods 1, 7 and 10 and 7/8 Study Skills (Periods 5 and 6). Suite 360 Social Emotion Learning (SEL) and Prosocial Behavior Skills will be a part of this years instruction.
Math Homework will be learner level extra practice instruction using an online program called iReady which can be accessed through the student resource app portal on the school website (Resources>Student Resources>Clever>iReady) or (District Website>Digital Portal …) located at the top of the page). Study Skills homework will be to complete core subject homework, missing or late classwork.
Late work will be accepted but must be turned in within five (5) school days after it has been assigned to earn full credit. After five days, credit may decrease 5% for each five-day period it is missing.
I look forward to teaming with you for a safe and successful school year for all. Let's Go Falcons!
