Dear Parents,
I am so excited to be back and I look forward to making a positive impact on your child's academic progress this year. Please note that it is not customary for me to write a syllabus since the Individualized Educational Program serves as my guideline for instruction. I will be posting a weekly preview of the week on my BLOG so that you can be familiar with the specific objectives that will be covered.
Sincerely,
Terri Hieber
