Welcome to 8th Grade English!

I look forward to working with you and your child(ren) this year! My webpage has information that is helpful for the class, such our syllabus, supply list, and lesson plans.

I have also included helpful links to our books that we will be reading this year (a new book every nine weeks). The photo gallery includes pictures from field trips, work shops, and dress-up days.

Please contact me with any questions or concerns that you may have. Go Tigers!!
