A note from Mrs. Acosta:

For our students: 

Welcome to 7th grade! I am the Team 6 Inclusion Teacher. If you are assigned 
to me, I will help support you through the science, social studies, and 
sometimes, English and math classes that you take with your classmates. 

I am a teacher, just like Mrs. Mavros, Mr. Lazarus, Ms. Gizzerelli and Ms. 
Gari, and I work with all of them to help all the students in our rooms to be 
successful. Sometimes I might teach or review with an entire class in one of 
our regular education rooms. I also teach your study skills class.

I expect that you will come to school regularly. I expect that you will 
behave like someone who comes to school to learn. I expect that you will try 
your best. In return, I will also come to school regularly, I will be 
prepared with lessons that will help you, and I will do everything else that 
I can to help support your success in 7th grade. 

I look forward to meeting our class!



Study Skills Mission

1.  Work productively. Work hard.  Whether it's a new lesson or practice, it 
all counts.

2.  Use the tools! (Planners, study methods, target questions, etc.)

3.  Partner with your teachers! Ask for help, know what you need help with.

4.  Smile! I'm glad you are here.
