I/We are so glad you are here! You maybe wondering why the I/We? That is because 4th, 5th and 6th hr are co taught by Ms. Lessel and Mrs. Blaylock while 1st and 3rd hour are with Ms. Lessel. So depending on your class hour select the pronoun that fits.

This week we have been busy learning about each other, creating our classroom environment, setting up some of our routines, and dealing with the heat. You have shown us that you know what school is for- an education , that how you get an education is by teaching and learning, and why you/we/I are doing this is because YOU MATTER. It is as simply as that.
