My name is Ms. Hale and I teach 8th grade ELA in Room #203. I have taught in the Boston Public Schools for 13 years, and 12 have been at BLA. I'm from Ohio and I love traveling! I have been to 6 out of the 7 continents, and have taken students to Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Greece, Italy, Spain, and Portugal. Please use this site for classwork assignments, homework assignments, and helpful links. I look forward to working with you this school year and know that's it's going to be a great year!
