Please check the Homework Hotline nightly to see if your child has homework. The number is in your student's agenda. 704-857-1852 (2702)

Please let me know if I can be of any assistance.


Quality work is the only work that is acceptable. I stress this daily with the students.


Students must keep up with the genres they read in their reading journals and they are required to write one entry a week. When I check these, I will ask them to put a star on the one they feel is their best work for grading. This grade counts one time.

Product Cards and Literary Analysis Letter format sheets in a plastic cover. These are kept in their 3-ring binder for reference. The dates and requirements for these are listed on the sheets. Please help  your child keep up with this as there is no set date for turn in other than about 2 weeks before each quarter is over. These count 3 times and can hurt a grade if not done.

Periodically, I will assign a movie review and students will have two weeks to complete the assignment. The start and end dates will be put in their organizers.

Tentative library dates are in their organizers and they are expected to bring their books back on that date so they can either check them out again, if they need to, or return them for new books.
