    • Popcorn Fundraiser Extended (posted 11/1/13)
      The popcorn fundraiser was supposed to end in October, but due to customer requests, the sale is being extended through November, or until we sell out. I can't believe how much popcorn we are selling. So far, we have sold over 1,000 bags!

      All flavors are in stock right now, but when they're gone, they're gone. Don't miss out on getting your favorites.

      THANK YOU! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!! Your support of the GATE program is incredible, just like the kids I work with every day.

  • No Checks (posted 10/1/13)
    A new policy has been instituted regarding payment for school fundraisers, events, and items. Beatty Elementary can no longer accept checks as payment. All payments must be made with cash or money orders. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

    • Popcorn Sale (posted 9/29/13)
      During October, GATE students will team up with Deanan Popcorn for a fundraiser. All of the profit we make will go directly to GATE activities. 4th and 5th grade students who are going on the Disneyland field trip can apply $1 from each bag of popcorn they sell to the cost of their trip.

      Popcorn comes in 8 flavors and is priced at one bag for $3 or two bags for $5. Click here for more information about the GATE Popcorn Sale.

  • GATE Starts Tomorrow (posted 9/2/13)
    Finally. It's time. GATE classes start tomorrow. Are you excited? Ready to learn? I am! I'll see you in room 86. If you aren't sure which days you come to GATE, you can always look on the Information page of our website

    • When Does GATE Start? (posted 8/25/13)
      Welcome back! I hope you enjoyed your summer vacation. Some of you stopped by at Open House to see our new home-away-from-home, aka Room 86. The most common question... when does GATE start? Answer: The second week of school. I will stop by your classroom this week to say hello and give you your GATE schedule. I'm excited to work with you. It's going to be a fun year!

  • All Good Things Must Come to an End (posted 8/14/13)
    It was inevitable. It had to happen. Yes, the last week of summer vacation is here (sighhhhhh). Teachers will go back to school in a week, August 21, and students will be there on August 26. If you want to stop by and say hello before the official first day, come to the Open House/Meet & Greet on Friday, August 23 (3 - 5 pm). This is the perfect opportunity for you to check out our new location: room 86.

    • Vacation Time! (posted 7/22/13)
      Summer = hot weather = no school = family vacation ... Bye for now....

  • New Look (posted 6/30/13)
    MyFunTeacher.com has a new look. Actually, the new look will continue to change. I've set up MyFunTeacher.com so I can change the graphics on all of the pages in just a few clicks. Don't be surprised if you visit us one day and you see a pirate-themed site, and the next day it's a Wizard of Oz theme.

    I have also been updating information on our site so it is more useable for gifted and talented students. Some of the old resources and pages have been taken down and new ones have been added. You can visit the site map to see what's here, or use the search box. If you can't find something that was on the old site let me know. I have copies of everything and am happy to share. Enjoy our new site!

    • Website Updates (posted 6/26/13)
      Over the next few weeks there will be some changes happening on MyFunTeacher.com. I hope you like what you see!
