A few of you have shared a dislike toward the first class website. Mattie McMurry, a first grade teacher at Jefferson, has shared

http://www.weebly.com/ Check out her web page! If you like what you see, try the site. It seems to be user friendly, especially to those

of you who consider yourselves less tech savvy. It is free and can be linked to your school website.

Side note: I have tried to schedule times to meet your website needs but have not been able due to being pulled for various needs and

afterschool workshops. Please email me a time that I can meet with you during your planning to assist with website questions.

*****TEACHER DISCRETION ADVISED****

September Respect Quote

“The best thing to give to your enemy is

forgiveness; to an opponent, tolerance; to a friend,

your heart; to your child, a good example; to a

father, deference; to your mother, conduct that

will make her proud of you; to yourself, respect;

to all men, charity.”

Ben Franklin
