I am thrilled to be able to return to in-person teaching! 
 
A few points to consider when signing up for my in-person “Hands-On Geography” and “Mission Possible: Global Issues, Leadership Choices” classes:


  • All students will be asked to use hand sanitizer when arriving for class, but students will be sharing materials for various in-class activities (e.g., coins, stamps, game tokens) and possibly food items.
 
  • I cannot teach in a mask, but I have been fully COVID-vaccinated and boosted.
 
  • Although I am keeping classes smaller than usual for the time being, social distancing is impossible.  Students in “Hands-On Geography” will be sitting on the floor with me gathered around oversized maps.  Students in “Mission Possible” are frequently in close meetings with each other in the course of in-class negotiations.

  • Beginning in Spring 2023, my in-person classes will be mask optional.  (Please note: because social distancing is impossible, it is possible students may be required to wear masks in class if a new variant again produces high rates of community transmission.)  I hope that those families and students who prefer masking indoors will still feel comfortable doing so.

I want students to have as normal and successful an experience as possible in my classes.  But I also want parents to understand what I think this will look like when completing their registrations.  Learning is most effective when it is fun and comfortable.

    I understand and agree to these policies for in-person instruction.
