Hello! Welcome to 2022-2023!

My Name is Mike Coon and I teach 6th and 7th grade Math, 8th grade math, Algebra 1 and Middle School Technology. Welcome to my website!

Our teaching team is thrilled to welcome you back to school! We will be greeting some new faces in our classrooms in both students and staff to start the year and look forward to getting to know all of you. This year has brought a few changes to our routines, and we will be working together as we introduce and practice these changes. With new technology, we also have the opportunity to integrate a more digital approach to our learning so that students have access to their resources from any location.

I have included course descriptions for each of my core and elective classes as well as our procedures and expectations. For grade-level or class-specific information, please contact me by email. Thank you for sharing your children with our school!
