Welcome back!


Sabin Magnet School
2216 W. Hirsch St.
Chicago, IL 60622
 
Dear Families,
Welcome back to school!  I am Mr. Crain-Davis and I am very excited to be joining Sabin Magnet School as your new technology teacher.  I am new to the school this year, but I am not new to the teaching profession.  Previously, I have worked in the Garfield Park, West Lawn, Uptown, and Englewood neighborhoods of Chicago teaching grades ranging from 4th – 8th grade.  I have a computer science and math background, both areas I feel will be beneficial this year.

Technology is a new auxiliary class being provided for the enrichment of the students at Sabin Magnet School.  In this course, we will be learning about the basic operations of computers, such as working with the hardware to run the computer, we will be looking at various software and applications to learn how to maximize efficiency when working with these programs, and we will be utilizing the web to develop projects and learn about the opportunities that the internet provides.

If you ever have any questions or concerns, please feel free to call the school to talk with me or to set up a conference.  You can call the school at (773) 534-4491.  I am always happy to speak with the families of my students about how they are doing and what is happening in our school.  I have also created a blog I will periodically update with what we are working on in class.  You can keep up to date by visiting: http://sabintech.blogspot.com.  Let’s work together to make sure your child gets everything he or she needs to be successful this year!
