"Classes are small and my kids are very fond of several very caring teachers and vis-versa. It’s also been good for me to see them being so independent with their APEX assignments." Jane, parent of a 7th & 11th grader

Upcoming Conferences

I will not be available during Mon-Weds conferences, as I will be accompanying students on the Mountain Lab School overnight field trip. If you wish to speak with me, I will be available during Thursday and Friday's conferences, or you can email me and we can set up a time to talk.

If I do not contact you, rest assured your child is doing just fine in robotics and science, but please feel free to come chat with me on Thurs or Fri. during conferences if you want to see what they've been up to.
