Dear Parent,
Welcome to a new semester at Walton High School! I am excited to have the chance to teach your
child this semester in CCGPS Honors Analytic Geometry. Attached you will find a copy of the course
syllabus, class policy sheet, and a student information sheet. Please take a moment to read through each of
these so that you may familiarize yourself with the curriculum and class
expectations.
CCGPS Honors Analytic Geometry is a rigorous, fast-paced
course, intended to prepare students for the rigor and formality of
college-level courses. This course will
place more emphasis on critical thinking and analysis of mathematical
concepts. For many students, it is more
challenging than previous mathematics courses they have taken. Because of this, it is imperative that we all
work together to make sure your child is taking all necessary measures to
perform to his/her potential.
Numerous online resources are available to both you and your
child. These include:
- The Walton Geometry course blog - http://waltonhigh.typepad.com/hag.
- Information specific to my classes - http://westhonorsgeometry.blogspot.com/. Students can choose to subscribe to this blog, which will allow them to make postings with any questions or concerns.
- Class text notification system – Students (and parents) who wish to join this will be notified via text of any pertinent information, changes to the schedule, or other information. To join, please text the phrase @westhongeo to 678-905-8082.
If at any time you have questions or concerns regarding this
class, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
E-mail is the preferred method of contact, as I can often reply much
more quickly to any concerns or questions you may have.
After you have read the attached information and completed
the student information sheet, please sign the attached form and have your
child return it to me no later than Wednesday, August 14th. I look forward to working together with you
and your child towards his/her math achievement!
Sincerely,
Jennifer West
