Multi-Grade Classrooms & My First Teaching Position!!!

Well, it has finally happened.  A lifelong dream has come true, an ambitious goal has been achieved...  In other words, I was hired to teach in the school district I wanted - and the grades and subjects that I wanted! 

I feel privileged to be a new Humanities teacher for grades 9-12 in Southern Alberta!!!  I am faced with a unique situation: 45 students, four grades, one high school, one classroom... 

So, I am beginning a journey that will require extensive planning and preparation.  I want to see the graduation rate increase - let's have a record breaking class of 2011!
