Welcome to the
Parents' Place
I recognize that you, as parents, want to be as involved as you can with your child's education.  For this reason, this page is dedicated to you.  On it, you will find links about NYS Standards, Middle Schools, the ever-so-dredded DBQ, and a variety of other topics. 

In order to help make this page more your own, feel free to send me any other helpful pages you might come across in your surfing.

Thank you,

Mr. Stern
