Ten extra credit points will be given to students whose parents attend parent-teacher conferences for English.  Parent-teacher conferences will be held on Monday (November 9) and Wednesday (November 11) from 4 o'clock until 7 o'clock p.m.  If your parent is unable to attend, they can do a phone conference during the school week of November 9th, and you will still receive the extra credit points.

**NOTE:  I will be at a conference on November 11th, but I will still be at conferences (although I may be running late).  Please make your parents aware of this information.***

The following is a list of basic supplies you will need for this course.

1.  Writing Utensils (Pens or Pencils are acceptable)
2.  Folder or Binder (Either are acceptabe)
3.  Notebook or Loose paper (Either are acceptable)
4.  Flash Drive/USB Drive (Optional but HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - no amount of memory is specified.  This device is used to back up, transport, etc. files for class projects and assignments.  It is quite possible to attain the grade of 'A' without this device, but it does make things easier for students.)

Welcome to the Springfield Clark CTC! I am looking forward to meeting you; we have a busy and exciting year ahead of us.  We will start off the first week of school getting to know each other as well as the skills you are bringing from your associate school.  Please let me know in advance if you have any medical needs, etc that I need to be aware of so that you can succeed in my classroom environment.  Please feel free to stop by my room during the Open House or Three Day Orientation to make me aware of these issues or to simply introduce yourself.
