Dear Parents and Students:

Welcome back to the 2009-2010 school year! If you are new to St. John, we look forward to having you! If you are returning, welcome back!

This is my fourth year at St. John as music teacher and guidance counselor. I teach music on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and Wednesday is designated for guidance. This year, I will also be teaching a middle school elective on Wednesday afternoons during 8th period (2:04 - 2:46).

If you would like to contact me for any reason during the year, e-mail is the quickest way to contact me and easiest way for me to contact you. If you would like to see me for any reason during the year, please contact me to set up an appointment. Please send e-mails concerning guidance issues to my guidance e-mail address, and send e-mails concerning music issues to my music e-mail address.

Thank you, parents, for encouraging your children to do their best in school, and thank you for all you will do to help make this year the best it can be! I look forward to an enjoyable and productive year!

Sincerely,

Mrs. Blankenship
