Is it time already?

Well... welcome back! There are many, many changes at Ashford School this year-- especially in the junior high! First, we are switching to a block schedule, which will give us LOTS more time with our students in big chunks of time. On Mondays, we'll see everyone and the rest of the week we'll see students every other day for 100 minute periods.
Another big change involves the addition of several seventh grade teachers--this means that we will not be teaching across grade levels. While I am a little sad that I won't have students for two years, I am really looking forward to being able to direct my planning and prep attention to the eighth grade curriculum.
I hope everyone had a wonderful summer-- relaxing and restful. If you are a student, I'll see you on Wednesday!
