Dear Sixth Grade Families,
Iwould like to Welcome you and your child to the 2015-2016 school year here at Calibre Academy. My name is Brad Parker and it is my honor to be your child’s Sixth Grade Math and Science Teacher. I am a Fifth year teacher and have worked in many fields along the way. This has allowed the benefit of knowing what skills business leaders are looking for.
I have been married to the same wonderful wife for almost twenty five years I have two beautiful daughters, an awesome son-in-law and two handsome grandsons. I am looking forward to working with you and your child in reaching his or her full potential as I have with myself and my family. We will have many wonderful experiences and opportunities to learn and grow this year.
I believe that communication is the key to a great parent-teacher relationship. I encourage you to contact me if you have any questions or concerns at any time. You can send me a note in your students agenda, email me at Bradford.Parker@learningmatters.org or call me at (623.556.2179). I will also do my part by sending out a newsletter via my web page to update you on what we have been doing in class as well as things that are up coming. For individual concerns, I will contact you by phone, send a note home, or email you (if an email address is provided).
***Every day your child will take home his/her Agenda.Please check this each day. It will contain important announcements, homeworkassignments, or completed work. It is very important that your childbrings this back to school each day signed by you. This will help to create a routine andcontinue the communication between home and school. Also, use this as a way tocommunicate with me. For instance, if your child is doing something differentfrom their normal schedule (going home with a friend, being picked up byanother family member, etc) please send me a note to let me know the change ofplans. I will check the Agenda each morning.
***Homework in Math and Science will be for extra practice, to review for a test/quizor if the work was not completed in class. Occasionally We will have Labs orprojects that will require some time at home.
***Attendance is important in sixth grade.What we do in class involves active participation, it is very important thatyour child attends each day. However, I do realize that sickness, familyemergencies, and doctor’s appointments do occur. Whenever possible, yourchild’s schoolwork will be saved for him/her to complete upon their return toschool.
The link below will take you to a survey that will help me to gather student information such as parent contact info and some likes and dislikes.
Sincerely,
Brad Parker
Thank You just doesn’t seem enough to say! This has been such a wonderful year and I have been truly blessed to work with your children. You can’t see this amazing picture collage very clearly but thanks to Mrs. Tohme and Mrs. Dacey, each child in the third grade sent me a suggestion for retirement! I will treasure this forever! Some of the suggestions that I remember:
Move to the retirement home near my house (The Meadows)
Sky dive
Be a lumberjack
Make soup
Watch Sponge Bob
Get a Make Over (my daughter laughed at this one)
Learn Something new
Hawaii
Go to Disney World
Spend Time with your family and new dog
All good advice. I may not sky dive or be a lumberjack (although I have a lot of sticks in my yard I need to pick up today) LOL…
Teaching isn’t for everyone but it has been my life for nearly 4 decades and I so appreciate all of you and your children. It has been an amazing last year! I’m on FB if anyone wants to Friend me so I can keep up with your kids!
Thank You!
