Welcome to our classroom webpage! I believe in the growth and development of all students, and I am very dedicated to making this a productive and enjoyable school year for your child.  I will help your child reach his or her goals throughout the year through positive reinforcement, but I will also encourage independence and responsibility. We will celebrate our unique differences and become a united classroom family.

Parent and teacher communication is very important.  Staying connected and working together is crucial for success.  Reach me directly at abaikie@dist126.org or at (708) 293-4127.  I will respond to emails and return phone calls as soon as possible.
