Please review my class syllabus to stay updated on class expectations, assignments (Google Classroom), and how to contact me for parent teacher conferences or to schedule tutoring sessions.
 
Your student will submit all assignments in Google Classroom. To access Google Classroom, please click here, click on Google Classroom, and click on your block.
