Dear Students,

We want our classroom to be a peaceful place where everyone feels they belong. To do that, we made some great classroom rules. Those rules will set a tone of respect in our classroom.

We’re also learning at least four things about each classmate. As Meg Wheatley says, “You can’t hate someone whose story you know.” You’ll have disagreements, but you’ll have a strong enough relationship that you will solve any problems you have. 

Being classmates is an important bond. We are each responsible for helping the other achieve our goals. Together we’re better.

Sincerely,

Mr. Heimbuck
