Bienvenidos! Welcome!
Welcome to Dr. Bissinger's Spanish class! I'm excited to start this school year whether you learning from home or in the classroom.
A little bit about myself: I grew up in Knoxville and moved to middle Tennessee in 2000. I earned my undergrad degree in Spanish from MTSU and began teaching English in Mexico. When I moved back here I started teaching Spanish in Metro. I went back to school during this time and earned a masters in teaching in 2009 and a doctorate in Educational Leadership in 2017. I left Metro for Rutherford County IN 2018 and love it here.
We will utilize the online textbook Que Chevere. To access that, go to Clever from the school's website. Click on CL Passport in Clever and you will see your online textbook assignments.
Check your grades regularly through Skyward using your assigned username and password. If you need assistance with your login information, visit or call our attendance office (ext. 31507).
If this is your first time accessing Clever from home, you will need to put your entire email address in (username@student.rcschools.net) and your password that you always use to log into a computer at school (although passwords may have been reset to your student number).
Contact me to obtain textbook information for this class. You can access your Office 365 account by clicking here; the username and password are the same as your computer login at school.
