TO THE PARENT/GUARDIAN:

My view of education  (by Mr. Rydberg, retired math teacher; adopted by Mr. Pearson.)
Since only about 3% of a child’s first 18 years of life is spent in school, I believe a child’s education is the primary responsibility of the parent(s); my role is to support and assist in that endeavor. Although I am committed to work hard, your student cannot do well without your help. You are crucial and indispensable. With these commitments in place, the success of your child will be a delight to us all. But, you are the key, without you, (checking homework and helping prepare for tests; providing a quiet place and time to study; being accountable for results; making time to discuss school work; and helping with organization), their success will be limited.

Please feel free to contact me for any reason by one of the following options:
· email me at cpearson@slcusd.org  (This is perhaps the must convenient to both of our schedules.)
· call to leave a message at 596-4055 X2135
· visit with me after class time, usually 3pm. (Please make an appointment first so you will be sure to find me.)
