Greetings and welcome to fifth grade!  My name is Jillian Massey and I will be your child’s 5th grade reading, writing, and social studies teacher.  I will be working alongside Mrs. Brennan to make it a great year in 5th grade.

This year, students will be learning many new things across the subject areas.  I have a lot planned for us.  In addition to our curriculum, some of my goals for the students are for them to work cooperatively with other students, to gain independent study and life skills, to encourage them to read for enjoyment, and to think and write independently.  

I’m very excited about the new school year and I’m looking forward to helping your child learn and grow.  Please feel free to contact me at any time with questions or concerns. I can be reached most easily by email at jmassey@westorangeschools.org. Once again, welcome to fifth grade. Let’s work together to make this a very successful year!
