Welcome To Mrs. Milazzo's web page

Dear Parents:

Welcome Back!!  Let me begin by introducing myself. My name is Mrs. Alison Milazzo and I will be your child’s ELA/Social Studies resource teacher for this school year.  I’ve been working as a Special Education Teacher in the North Bergen School District for the past 21 years.   I hold a B.A. degree in Special Education and an M.A. in general education.  I reside in Essex County with my husband, 11 year daughter, our cat, and two dogs. 

Welcome to one of the most incredible years your child will have in his/her school career.  This is an exciting time as children embark upon new adventures in the world of learning.  This is a year of important transitions, as well as one in which acquisitions of new skills is accelerated.  I hope to make your child’s day of learning an experience filled with adventures and fun filled.  I hope to instill a love of learning that will last throughout your child’s years of schooling.  Each child will progress at his/her own rate, acquiring skills as he/she is developmentally ready.  Maintaining each child’s self-esteem and building a secure foundation for growth will always remain a priority in our class.  Here are some ways you can help:

1. Please talk your child each day they return from school. Ask them what they learned. Ask them how their day was. Be inquisitive about their day of learning. 
2. Celebrate your child’s success, no matter how small it may seem.  This will keep your child enthusiastic about learning and proud of their work.  
3. Read to and with your child every day, if possible.  The more your child is exposed to language, the easier it will be for him/her to incorporate new skills in reading and writing in the classroom.  
4. Please, check my google classroom for daily work and especially google meets.
5. Your child is responsible for checking their assignments and also participate in our meetings.
6. Please, continue to enforce the importance of your child's class and home work participation.
7. Google meets will also be part of participation and classwork grading.

I look forward to working with your child this upcoming school year.  If you have any questions feel free to contact me at [email protected]    I’m looking forward to a successful school year!!!!

Thank You,
