Opening Letter from School Website


Dear Readers,

No kidding. I am looking more forward to this school year than any in my career. Part of this renewed enthusiasm is due to 22 full  days of staff development this summer at Jackson State University, Ohio State University and Portland State University. Part is due to getting my groove back. Part is due to a new classroom management plan that will promote civility as we learn. (See my blog for more information www.everbrushstrokes.blogspot.com)

The good news is that I am still able to be a lifelong learner, and I also hope the same for my kids. My mission as a teacher and person is to share and to enjoy the wonders of this world.

This is the place to check for all classwork and homework assignments. Check the bullets on the side for Supplies, Procedures and Policies, Homework, and Classwork, and a biweekly Newsletter.

Parents feel free to contact me at any time via email: jbanks@madison-schools.com or by calling the school - 601-856-7121. Students can see me for help before or after school or at break and can only contact me through their school email in accordance with district policy.

Let us make this a great year.  I am looking forward to meeting and working with all my students and parents.

Sincerely,


John R. Banks
