Social Studies Introduction Letter
Hello, my name is Mr. Stoos and I am pleased to introduce myself as your 2019/2020
Social Studies teacher. While this year will be my first experience teaching in a Middle School
setting, I have an extensive background in training young adults in the military, police, and
college sectors. In the past I have served our country on many world-wide fronts, however, I
want you to know that I view the task of preparing our young minds for the real world through
the lens of social studies and civics as be my most important mission tasking to date.
Throughout the school year, I will be pushing your child to perform at their maximum potential
and will additionally be grooming them for real world scenarios they will face upon graduation.
Some important classroom procedures I will be stressing to the students throughout the
year are academic maturity, self-discipline, and professional behavior with colleagues and
authority figures. To accomplish this, my classroom format and style will mimic the type of
learning environment the student will face in the college and corporate environment to include
the expectation of proper classroom comportment, self-directed outside studies, and respect for
others. As well, remarkable deviations from these expectations can and will result in
and lastly the intervention of parents and administration. Lastly, I would like to mention that I
like to give students a physical option for self-correction which could involve after class push-
students into productive members of society as an honor I take very seriously. I can be reached
Very Respectfully,
