August 15, 2011 Dear Parents, I am honored to have the opportunity to teach your child this semester. I am excited to embark on the scientific adventure in Bulldog country with them. My goal is to enrich their understanding of Chemistry over the next 18 weeks. I encourage you to be involved in their academic endeavors. I will assist you in supporting their educational experiences by uploading my PowerPoint presentations, assignments, other notes and announcements on my school website. If you ever have questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call the school office and leave a message for me or contact me via e-mail, hminton@pikecountyschools.com. I am taking graduate school classes this semester and will not be available every day for tutoring or extra help, however I will post times, on my website and outside my classroom door, that I will be available. I encourage all students who need extra help to take advantage of the extra help. I also find it extremely important that students are in class every day, so I am soliciting your assistance in making sure that they attend regularly. In Chemistry, we will move at a fairly fast pace so missing one day may set them back a little. Looking forward to a great year, Heather Minton
