Welcome to Mr. Laviolette's Shadow Creek High School page.  I am excited to teach English III, Journalism, and Yearbook. While this is my first year with Alvin ISD, I have 13 years of English instruction including 8th, 10th, 11th, 12, including GT and ESL, as well as AP English Literature and junior college Developmental English. 

I hold a BA in English from Baylor University, as well as an M. Ed. in Administration and Supervision from the University of Houston-Victoria. My teacher certifications include English Language Arts and Reading (8-12), ESL Supplemental (8-12), as well as Principal (K-12).

It is a blessing to teach your students here in Alvin ISD. My goal is to help all students learn, improve, and experience success in the classroom as well as prepare them for future success beyond. 

While we wait out the threat of the coronavirus, I will hold weekly office hours on Wednesdays and Fridays, from 1-2 PM, via Google Hangout. Students, parents, and guardians are encouraged to check-in during that period to ask any questions they may have, share the good news, and interact with other students. 

I will post the link to the Google Hangout in the Google Classroom along with student assignments for the week. 

Should you have any questions about instruction, grades, or discipline, please do not hesitate to contact me: JLAVIOLETTE@ALVINISD.NET.

I hope my students, their friends and family members, are all doing well and illness-free. Be confident in your abilities to weather the crisis; keep your mind engaged; support your family and friends in any way you can reasonably do so.

Sincerely, 

Mr. Laviolette
