Hello....=) Good Morning Baton Rouge, LA !!!! My name is Ms. Allene Kaiser. My school email address is AKaiser3@ebrschools.org Please feel free to schedule a conference with me or all your child's teachers by calling the school office 272-3090. I have 35 years teaching experience, 29 years in middle school math classes. The last 5 were here at Sherwood Middle where the students are totally "R A D" and maintain high standards of academic excellence. I use songs and chants, rhythm and rhymes in my classes to help my students remember what they learn about the math ideas and methods of solving mathematical situations. I am stern about all my students being in the proper dress code for E B R Parish policies and bringing their OWN pencilsssss to class!!!!. I assign homework every day since our school has an A/B block schedule. My motto is...Good Better Best. Never let it rest. Until the good is better and the better is MY BEST!!!! and I just don't mean on tests....YES! A favorite quotation of mine is... An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Another quote I use often in my classes is by President Theodore Roosevelt. DO WHAT YOU CAN WITH WHAT YOU HAVE WHERE YOU ARE! You have Great teachers here at Sherwood. This is what you have where you are. Now do what you can with all your class assignments, being "R A D " Respectful, Accountable and Dedicated, to get the best education. This education is something NO One can ever take from you! =) =) =) Education is not received...... It is achieved!! Attitude is a little thing that can make a BIG difference. Is yours worth catching?
