Geometry ( Honors) , Pre-Algebra 8.3, Algebra (Honors)
Wow, great job Matadors!! Our API went up to 881!! In math, Geometry averaged 498 and 7th grade Algebra 527 on the STAR test. These are some of the highest scores ever at Bernardo and the highest in our district!. Awesome job students and parents!!
As for me, I am starting my 31st year at Bernardo Yorba, and 33rd year teaching. Some ask how long I am going to teach. I usually answer, as long as God graciously gives me health, as long as I enjoy working with students and as long as I think I continue to make a difference. I believe we have a great school, with wonderful parents and a strong staff. What better place could I ask to work?
The study and mastery of mathematics can bring great satisfaction and enjoyment and lead to a career of greater challenge and reward. The discipline, methods and higher level thinking are all tools that are the gateway to many professions whether they specifically involve math or not. Of course, if you are thinking of science, medicine, engineering, and computers to mention a few, math is an essential component skill for you.
Let's work together to make this a fantastic year!
