| Canvas & Skyward: |
I do not use these tooks for student and parent communications. Skyward is the only grading platform I use. I have found that syncing Canvas grades to our required Skyward platform is not reliable. |
I do not regularly check Canvas Messages or Skyward Messages. School email or voicemail are the best ways to contact me.
Canvas is NOT used for grading, but rather a place to memorialize assignment directions and PDF copies of handouts and readings.

| Office: |
F-100 Staff Office -- My desk is the first desk on the right as you enter the staff office. Note, my classroom and office are in different flex areas. |
I will only be teaching periods 1, 3, & 5 this year. Because all of this is in the classroom, I will only be available to take calls during Advisory, when I'm at my office desk. Because there is no Advisory on Fridays, my office hours are 9:11 - 9:41 if you need to call. |
|
| Classroom: |
E-105 -- This is the straight back as you enter the E-100 flex area. My room is just accross the flex area near the double steel doors leading to the mini-courtyard between E & F flex areas. |
I will generally be in my classroom. I am usually free in the mornings after 6:45, during Advisory, and after school. Feel free to come in and get help or just hang out. If you come in and I am not helping students you may have to listen to my music. |
|
| Phone: |
(425) 431-6098 -- strange, but nobody ever seems to use this much anymore |
Mostly I cannot answer the phone during the day because I am teaching. If you need to get to me, please leave a voicemail and I will return calls within 2 work days. If I am at my desk, I will pick up. |

It is difficult to check email while teaching. I usual check in the morning before classes, and again at the end of the day. I try to respond within 2 work days. I do not check emails from home. |
