WELCOME TO 6TH GRADE!
Dear Parents:
Welcome to a new academic year! This will be a great year where your child will develop responsibility and indepenence, explore personal interests and learn about the world we live in. I will be teaching English Language Arts and Social Studies. We will explore new novels/guidebooks selected by Monroe City Schools as well as implement a new Social Studies curriculum called Go Gallopade.
My name is Rachel Turnbough and this is my 24th year in education with Monroe City Schools. I have a Bachelor's degree from Cententary College of Louisiana, completed the Alternative Certification progam at the University of Louisiana at Monroe as well as a Masters in Education. Teaching is not just a job, it is my passion. My belief is that a child that leaves feeling successful comes back ready and willing to learn.
Finally, I want you to know that one of my most important goals this year is to keep the lines of communication open with you. Please don’t hesitate to contact me through classroom Dojo if you have any questions or concerns during the year.
Sincerely,
Ms. Turnbough
