Congratulations to the Class of 2021 Graduates!

Happy June!

Week of 6/7:

1. This week, we will be covering these very exciting topics in Social Studies: 

6th Grade- The Golden Age of Greece
7th Grade- The End of the Civil War
8th Grade- Looking Ahead Through the 20th Century

2. "COVID Caveat": We have never done this before. This is a year when people have to figure out how to be students, teachers, parents, children, employees, employers, friends, colleagues, and just human beings in the midst of a global pandemic.
We are going to get some things wrong. As we see what the months ahead have in store for our city, country, and world, some of our expectations may change.
We will work together to get you what you need to learn in this class, while being aware of the immense uncertainty that surrounds all “planning” at this point.
I also hope we work together to build community—to serve as a space for exchanging information, asking important questions, changing our minds, and supporting and advocating for one another. 
I am committed to working with each of you, and all of you, to create the conditions in which you feel supported in doing the assignments.
As issues arise that impact your learning, please let me know, and let’s find solutions together.

As always, if you need to reach me with any questions or concerns, do not hesitate to email me at mpeters@sfxschool.net
