Hi guys! I finally decided to take the time to set up a page to detail just what it is that i've been doing out here since the end of August.

Here's the deal: right now i'm teaching grades 6 through 9. I'm teaching 8/9 science, 7/8/9 social studies, 6 gym, 8/9 fine arts, 9 literature and a whole shizzy-nit load of other stuff. I think I'm going to enjoy doing this for the next 35 years or so.

In any case, pictures (and captions) will be put up in here sometime in the next few weeks. Until then, here are the names of all my students in grade 8 and 9. Class pictures and newspaper reports should be up before the Christmas break.

Much love,

Dorian Burt

Jr. Girl's Basketball Team: My very first coaching gig. The current roster is Dee Desrosiers, Ebani deBussac, Allison Weekes, Teejay Surik, Jocelin Malazdrewich, Haley Hallberg, Kiki Schweder, Felicia Foster, Janna MacIntyre, Amy Heather. With any luck, we'll win our first game on Dec 11. They've got a lot of potential and I wish them all the best of luck.

Last, but not least, my best wishes and heartfelt thanks go out to the staff of St. Gabriel's for taking me in these past 4 months and giving me the greatest teaching experience I could have hoped for. Special thanks go out to Rob Meschishnick and Julian Slywka for all their help. I'll be sorry when I have to leave.

Do you have a question or comment? Feel free to email me (Dorian Burt) and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
