A Warm Welcome From Mr. Horne

Welcome to the 2019-20 school year! I am very excited to begin my 14th year of teaching, and my 4th year of teaching in the Fairfield City School District. As a staff, we can't wait to start the school year at the Fairfield Freshman School!
 
I will be teaching Algebra I and Geometry, along with also serving as the head of the math department in the building this school year. 
 
I will be utilizing this website to communicate with both students and parents throughout the school year. Please subscribe to my page to receive emails each time this page is updated so that you can stay informed about the course.
  
Below you will find general information about class expectations, materials needed, grading policies and procedures, and other important course information. Please visit your respective course page (Algebra I or Geometry) for additional information about that specific course, weekly agendas, upcoming assessments, and unit notes.
 
In order to easily access websites that we use during class time, please visit the Links page. There is also a link to Progress Book for your convenience so that you can check your progress in all of your classes as needed.
 
If you have any questions at any time please do not hesitate to contact me by phone or email. I am looking forward to a great school year! Go Indians!
