Dear Parents and Guardians,
I want to take this opportunity to introduce myself and express how excited I am to be working with your child this year. My name is Mr. Colli and I have been teaching U.S. History in Yonkers Public Schools for 20 years. Born and raised in Yonkers, it is with great pride that I am able to teach in this community.
Although this course ends in a New York State Regents Exam, your child’s social & emotional well-being takes top priority in our class. It is my goal to provide a classroom environment where your child will feel comfortable and have a voice. This has been a challenging few years for all of us, and I will be taking that into consideration as I conduct my daily lessons.
Parent-Teacher communication is key, and I encourage you to contact me throughout the school year. I will be reaching out periodically to inform you of your child’s progress as well as important events that transpire throughout the school year. Together as a team we will ensure that your child has a successful school year.
Thank you,
Mr. Colli
