Homeroom students!!!!!!

The first thing you should do when you get your Chromebook is click HERE and fill out the Chromebook Condition Form.

Be VERY detailed in your description and make sure you fill out the form correctly.  You are to click Trecek as your homeroom teacher :) please do not click any one else's name so your results go to the right teacher.  If damage is not noted of the form, you will be charged for your Chromebook and any repairs needed at the end of the school year when I fill out a check in form.

Take the time to do it now, save money later!

Electronic Instagram Permission Slip

Welcome to the 2015-2016 school year!

Dear Parents and Guardians;


Welcome to the 2015-2016 school year at LCMS!  I am looking forward to working with you and your student this year.
This year’s learning in language arts will include reading, writing, speaking, listening, participation in discussion and debate, collaborations and individual opportunities to explore learning.  In language arts, we seek to discover understandings of the following essential questions:
  • Can all conflicts be resolved?
  • How much information is enough?
  • What is the secret to reaching someone with words?
  • Is it our differences or our similarities that matter most?
  • Are yesterday’s heroes important today?
Time in class will be devoted to exploring these big ideas and growing as readers, writers, and speakers, though students should be prepared to spend some time outside of class on their studies.  Please bookmark our class blog on home devices so you have access to documents and announcements: http://trecekla8.blogspot.com/
Students are welcome to see me if they need additional help with coursework.  I am usually available before school from 7:15 until the AM Homeroom bell, and after school until 3:15, if a student is staying later than 3:15, they must ask in advance (at least 24 hours notice) to ensure they can get the help they require.  Emailing is the fastest way to get a hold of me, sent to ctrecek@lewiscentral.org, please expect at least 24 hours return time.
Thank you for being an integral element of your student’s success, and thank you in advance for your support.  You are an important part of the LCMS atmosphere!  I look forward to meeting you at LCMS Open House and seeing you at Parent/Student/Teacher conferences.
Sincerely,
Carrie Trecek
