Hello everyone!
I am so excited to start a brand new semester here at Hillside School! We have started off the new semester by staying on track with APS's scope and sequence for our Social Studies classes. My hope for this new year is to become better at giving student feedback to help improve student understanding of the content. I also hope to get better at assessments and using the results to continue to guide my teaching. I am still relatively new to teaching but am always looking to improve, as should all teachers. This semester I am teaching the following classes: World Geography World History Part B U.S. History Part B Economics American Government It is up to our whole high school team to make sure your child is receiving a quality education while they are seeking treatment at Hillside. We hope we can keep them on track with their credits. This is where parent involvement can be helpful. We would like to make sure we have all of our students transcripts in a timely manner, so if you have them or could help us in finding them that would help so much. If you have any questions you can call my extension at 329. I hope your start to the year is as happy as mine. Hello!!!
All of our teachers are back and have started their pre-planning week! We are working hard to get classes updated, track down IEPs, figure out caseloads, get our classrooms ready, make parent contacts, complete folder reviews and lesson planning! Having only three days does not seem like a lot of time, but we are highly optimistic. Our High school team is almost all new to Hillside and teaching! I am so excited to work with all our new VERY talented teachers. We are excited for this year, and ready for the learning to begin! What a year! We will be out for the summer and back to our full school on July 30th, 2018! During the summer our kids will work on remediation skills in math and reading.
So far so good this semester. Our kids have been hard at work trying to stay on scope and sequence for each of their social studies classes. We recently held a Black History Month museum walk through. Here are some pictures of their work! |
