Welcome Back!
Hello! My name is Mr. Mueller. In these pages, I maintain a daily blog where you can read about our everyday activities in the classroom. Please check in regularly to check on assignment/project details, upcoming quizzes or tests and project deadlines.
A new school year is upon us again! If you are in my Core 7 class (Math, Science, SS, English) or Social Studies 9, we will be meeting in room 120.
Please take the time to review your class schedules, who your teachers are, and the location of your classes.
Looking forward to a great year.
