Dear Families:<\/p>\n
Welcome to the 2017-18 school year! I am looking forward to a productive partnership with you to ensure our children can achieve their highest potential. I would like to take this moment to introduce myself. My name is Zane Hammoud and I will be your child\u2019s 5th grade teacher. This will be my 4th year teaching in the classroom and I am really excited. I am a graduate of Wayne State University (2013) with a major in integrated science and elementary education. I am very fortunate to be in a profession where I get to work with kids on a daily basis. In my opinion, there is nothing more exciting or rewarding than teaching. I am a firm believer that an effective \u201ceducation is the passport to a brighter future.\u201d<\/p>\n
A good parent-teacher relationship is essential to a student\u2019s success in the classroom. Throughout the year, I will be communicating with you through notes, telephone calls, progress reports, report cards, parent-teacher conferences and email. I believe in an open door policy and you are always welcome in the classroom. I encourage you to contact me if you have any questions or concerns at any time during the school year. You can reach me at (313) 827-6850 before or after school. You can also send me a note or email me at hammouz@dearbornschools.org<\/a>. I also encourage parents to take an active role in participating in classroom and school activities (i.e. birthdays, classroom parties, field trips, school plays, sporting events, concerts etc.) that your son\/daughter may be involved in. Your support of these activities will benefit your son\/daughter tremendously. Participating in such activities will also allow you to take part of the rich opportunities available here at Miller Elementary.<\/p>\n Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, concerns or would just like to know more about my classroom and your child\u2019s progress. I appreciate your support and look forward to meeting you soon. I am really looking forward to working with your son\/daughter this year and hope I can rely on your support at home.<\/p>\n Sincerely,<\/p>\n Mr. Zane Hammoud<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Dear Families: Welcome to the 2017-18 school year!
