Amy Fleming
Welcome!
2011-2012 8th Grade Pre Algebra -- "Be Yourself"
Each student brings a unique perspective to the group. Together, we can accomplish much more than any one individual. I encourage all students to actively participate in class in a respectful manner with a positive attitude.

My name is Amy Fleming, and I love teaching 8th grade math.  It is a perfect fit for me!  I am married with one son who will be in Kindergarten this year. 
Parents of my 8th graders are encouraged to contact me at any time with questions, comments, concerns, or just to check in!  My email address is afleming@ptisd.org. I will do my best to return your email the same day.  My conference period is 4th period from 11:05 to 12:00 on days that run a normal schedule.

MRS. FLEMING HAS MORNING DUTY FROM 7:30-8:00 April 16-27.  Otherwise, I will be available for tutorials every morning at 7:30, and most days until 4:00.
