Communicate through e-mail The best way to contact me is by e-mail. reilwms@bcsd.neric.org I usually check it twice each day. PRACTICE INTERNET SAFETY - As per school policy, students should e-mail teachers only with their parents permission and only for educational purposes. E-mails should be sent through a parent's e-mail, not a student's personal account. E-mails for the global coaltion should only be sent through the students' assigned Global Coaltion e-mail accounts. Thanks! :> My school e-mail address is reilwms@bcsd.neric.org
