Dear Parents/Guardians,

My name is Ana Maria Grippo. I am your child's 7th & 8th grade Math & Science teacher. I am delighted and looking forward to a productive partnership with you to ensure children can achieve their highest potential. I recognize that in order to be successful in school, our children need support from both their parents and the teacher. A strong partnership with you will make a great difference to your child’s education. As partners, we share the responsibility for our children’s success. I want you to know that I will do my very best to guide and support your child’s learning so they can achieve a successful academic school year. 

To guide and support your child's learning, please ensure that he/she:

1. Attends school daily and arrives on time, ready for the day's learning experience.
2. Comes to school prepared with all the materials necessary for success. 
3. Completes all homework assignments.
4. Share school experiences with you so that you are aware of his/her school life.
5. Informs you if he/she needs additional support in math and science. 
6. Knows that we are partners and are here to help them have a successful school year.  

Communication is the best way to ensure success. I am available for appointments to discuss your child's progress before and after school. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.  I thank you for your continued support and look forward to meeting you. 

Ana Maria Grippo
