WELCOME TO GLACIER VIEW
WELCOME TO LIFE ISSUES
Hello, my name is
Valerie Barabe and I will be your student’s Life Issues
teacher this year. I would like to take a moment to introduce
myself, as we will be building a partnership together to bring your
student’s optimal success this year.
I am a proud Cougar Alumni! I received my teaching certificate from
Washington State University where I also obtained a Bachelor of
Arts in Human Development and a Bachelors of Science in Psychology.
I am excited to be back at Glacier View and bring with me a
great deal of experience working with a variety of community and
student-based organizations, which complements my commitment to
student leadership and engagement in the community.
When I'm not busy teaching and
spending time with my new baby, Tatum, I enjoy spending time with
family and friends, watching movies, listening to a wide range of
music, going to concerts, comedy shows, and cheering on my
favorite sports teams. GO HAWKS, GO COUGS!
I
look forward to meeting with you to discuss your child’s
education and goals. Together, we can make this year a productive
and important one!
I am best reached by email as I can respond to that throughout the
day and more efficiently : barabeva@puyallup.k12.wa.us.
I am also able to be reached by phone before school and after
school until 3PM during the week: 253-840-8922
HOW I USE MY
TEACHERWEB
I use my teacherweb to inform you about upcoming assignment,
events and activities that are planned. Please be aware that
this is a resource for students and parents and I expect students
to use it in order to get additional copies and use as a tool if
they are absent.
Please note the various sections on the left hand side:
Announcements: When I need to
communicate upcoming events, when grades are posted for projects,
and when deadlines are approaching this is where to find it.
Documents: I
post all my activities that are electronic into this section. There
are 3 sections: Leadership (for leadership students), and Life
Issues and Job Shadow (for Life Issue students).
Events: Post
a general schedule of events and due dates, FCCLA activities and
school events.
Grades: Your
link to view your students grade. It is updated every night. This
is a great tool to make sure you have all your work in.
Links: Helpful links that provide
additional resources students may be interested in and use to
complete assignments.
