Dear parents/guardians,

I would like to extend a warm welcome to each family represented in our class. I
am very excited for starting this new school year and having the opportunity of
being your child’s teacher. I will provide a positive, safe and caring environment
for students to learn according to their needs. I hope that each of us (parents,
teacher and student) can work together as a team. I would encourage you to
communicate regularly with me and please do not hesitate to contact me with
any questions or concerns. The best way to get in touch with me is by email at
[email protected].

Computer, Internet, and Video Use


We will use technology in the classroom (computers, chrome books) on a daily basis. The
purpose of this is to train students and prepare them with real life skills. Due to the nature
of the internet, student use will be monitored. Students are expected to use classroom tools
with respect. Any damage done to any classroom technology will be billed to the parents of
the student. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the student to treat classroom materials
with care. Each student and parent/guardian will be required to sign a technology use
contract before any student is allowed to use the technology found within the classroom. It
is important to get these signed and returned as soon as possible to allow students to
complete assignments. We will start right away using technology in our lessons. There will
also be an internet form that you can fill out as well, if you prefer not to use a paper copy.
In addition, we will use short video clips and various social media in our lessons. Know
that all material will be age appropriate. Anything that does not meet the district viewing
policy will require parent/guardian permission slips in order to view this type of material in
class. You may find out more about district policies by going to provo.edu

I reserve the right to make changes to this document. However, all changes will be
communicated to students and parents in advance through my web page or email.
I look forward to working with you and your child this year. Please feel free to contact
me with any questions/concerns. I can be contacted by e-mail at [email protected]
most easily, but I can also be reached by phone in my classroom at 801-370-4621 ext.
