 PARENT VOLUNTEERS: I am always looking for parent volunteers to help in the Language Arts and Social Studies classes. If you are interested please send an email, send a note or call and I will work to find a time for you to help.

*Please note that when the page is set up for the whole week, things may change if the lessons go more quickly or take more time than originally planned.

*Please note that there are some commonly used abbreviations on my calendar.  GROW is geography practice using an atlas.
