Ms. Franco's 7th/8th Grade Social Studies

 Dear Parents,

Thank you for your patience.  I am Ms. Franco, the new Social Studies teacher for 7th/8th grade. I am new to Detroit Premier Academy this year and I have enjoyed your children thus far.   My passion is History and Social Studies, so I am excited to truly begin delving into these subjects.   I appreciate the support that you have given me, and I would ask that you continue to support me as I "challenge each child to succeed".  I have used these first few weeks to create a classroom environment where the students feel safe and are learning.   If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at 313-945-1472 ext. 141 or e-mail me at 68.rfranco@nhamail.com.
