Welcome Parents and Students

Posted on August 2, 2010 by ridals

I want to welcome you to my Web site for parents, students, and educators. I will be posting students’ assignments and dates for quizzes and tests on this site instead of School Notes. Use the drop-down menu above to find a course. PDF versions of each syllabus will be available on the course pages.

If you have any questions regarding the site or need to schedule a conference with me regarding your child, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I can best be reached via e-mail at sridal@somersetacademy.com.

Thank you so much for being involved in your child’s learning process. Together we can make a powerful difference!

Have a great year,

Ms. Ridal

Gearing up for new year

Posted on June 12, 2010 by ridals

Summer plans are in full swing, but make sure you bring some reading material with you to read on your down time; you are to read three books. You will be given an exam the first week of school on the required novel; for two other choices you will complete two My Access essays. Use your My Access login and password from last year. If you don’t remember it, please send an e-mail to Ms. Vasquez at Somerset. Otherwise, just keep your essays in a Word document for safe keeping, as they can be transferred to My Access at a later date. The school will be purchasing plagiarism software for next school year, so make sure your work is your own!

Somerset Summer Reading 2010-11

This is the time of year that I also look for back-to-school supply deals. For updates, keep an eye on my Twitter feed on this page or follow me on Twitter at twitter.com/ridalhigh.
