09 August 2019. Dear students and parents: It is with great pleasure that I will teach the English subject during this school year. The main purpose of my teaching goals for this new semester, is to first,get to know you  and try to identify your needs according to the Department of Education curriculum and standards. Being a member of this school makes your journey even more challenging due to the responsibilities you have with the sport you practice and your academic challenges. This should not be an obstacle for you to reach your goals,it will serve as motivation to reach the highest standards of education and in sport. Remember it takes discipline,effort and good mental attitude to go after your dreams! Best regards, Sharon M. Acosta Martinez English Teacher
