Welcome to the 2009-2010 school year at Twin Lakes Middle School. My name is Kenneth Stewart and I am your child's Comprehensive Science teacher. It is indeed a pleasure to be afforded this wonderful opportunity of teaching your child this school year.

    I come by way of about three decades of teaching experience at both the elementary and middle school level, here in Duval County.The majority of my teaching has been with  fifth or sixth graders.

    This year promises to be challenging as well as fun-filled. Our class theme is : Thinking Like A Scientist. As we journey towards success,your continuous involvement is greatly appreciated.

    My expectations for your child is to complete all assignments, attend school / class regularly, participate and most important.....try! You are asked to oversee your child's progress by communicating with me and ,I with you on a regular basis.Once this happens I can assure you and your child of great success.

   I thank you for this wonderful opportunity. It is my wish ,and I hope yours that we all experience much success throughout the year.
