Our class is a shared experience.  It is a series of learning events unfolding over a short span of time carefully designed to promote intellectual, social, and emotional growth in each active participant.  A truly great class is one that produces powerful positive results in the short-term but maybe just as importantly, produces impactful positive memories over the long-term.  I want everyone in our class to be able to think of the experience as a great class.  

I will work hard for our class to be an impactful learning experience for you, but please consider that impactful learning experiences require you to commit and contribute in an honest and consistent way.  Let's all have a great class experience together.

Yours in Learning,  Mr. Haas
