Parents,
Starting January 9, 2023, we will be reading Genesis Begins Again by Alicia D. Williams. Students will need to have their own personal copy of the book each and every day in class. It is the student's responsibility to keep up with his/her book (our class assignments, homework, and other activities will come from the text). We will be working on this book during the first nine weeks of school. IF YOU NEED A TANGIBLE COPY PLEASE PURCHASE THE BOOK THAT IS PICTURED (DO NOT PURCHASE ANY OTHER VERSION OF THE BOOK). A slightly used copy of the book can be purchased for as little as $1.00 from

Please remember if your child brings an electronic device to school and miss uses the privilege, they will no longer be allowed to bring it to school. They will be required to have a hard copy of the text. Students will need their book in class on January 9, 2023 (the first day of the 1st Nine Weeks). If you have any questions, please contact me.
