Welcome Back!

A great big welcome back to my students! Most of you will be coming into my classroom for the second time... I moved from 8th grade Pre-Algebra to 9th grade Algebra I just before school started this year so we will continue your math education together! If you are a new student to Byng, welcome!

I look forward to our journey through the "land of the unknown variable" together! I will be posting homework assignments and important information here. Parents & students are both welcome to visit as often as you can.
