Welcome to 6th
grade at James Giles School. This year will be a great time to set
high goals and plan for some exciting learning opportunities.
During these
middle school years, your child will go through many changes
physically, socially, emotionally, and intellectually. We hope that
these changes are positive, interesting, and unforgettable.
As your child matures
he/she will be expected to assume more
of the responsibilities for his/her own learning.
This will include keeping track of homework assignments and long-range
projects, coming to class with proper materials, and developing study skills.
Parents/guardians are essential to
student success, and we encourage parents/guardians to be actively involved in
their children’s education and co-curricular activities.
Be
assured that Mr. Gruszka and I will work together in an effort to help your child reach his/her potential.
Our team approach is designed to assist your child to achieve success.
In addition, we encourage you to communicate with us throughout the year
if there is any way we can better meet the specific needs of your child.
You may reach me via email at
mmostyn AT norridge80.org.
(replace AT with @) or you can call the school office and leave a message.
Students having
difficulty are encouraged to see us for help before school, after
school, during activity period or Breakfast Club. Parents/guardians
may feel free to contact us via email or telephone. Our contact
information is located at the top of the page.
Occasionally news from our classroom will be
posted on this site. I encourage you to check back frequently to see what
our class is doing at school.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Mary Mostyn
