Welcome to 7th Grade & the new School Year!

My name is Ann Routh and it is my pleasure and honor to work with your children each day.  I have been teaching at Day Creek Intermediate in Etiwanda School District since 2006.  I am married to wonderful man.  We have four grown children together, including one who teaches 8th grade ELA/SS at EIS.  I have five grandbabies, 4 boys and 1 girl.  I have a houseful of loving pets.  I love to go camping, watch scary movies, sew, cook, bake, work on my home, and spend time with my friends and family. 

I have high expectations for my students and expect their partnership this year. Respect is an integral part of my classroom. Each student is a unique individual and is capable of great things. It is my goal that your student not only be successful academically, but also grow into a well-rounded contributing member of society. I look forward to forging a partnership with your student and with you, the parents/guardians. I strongly believe education is power and it is my goal to help each student achieve success.  I want all of my students to achieve literacy, be successful, and be self-sufficient citizens of the 21st-century global world.  Please communicate with me about what you need help with and what your goals are.
