You are going to have a good experience this year. This classroom
will be well organized, and you will be well cared for while you
are in it. We will not only study math, but I will also share with
you some life skills and secrets that will help you succeed in
tomorrow’s world. And in the area of technology you will have a
few things to share as well.
So welcome!!
