Contact Info
For any particular questions or concerns, don't hesitate to contact me anytime. If I can't answer, please tell me the best way and best time to get back in touch with you. I'm often not immediately available, but I regularly check and respond to messages.
I do not discuss student individual student performance via email or voicemail, but can use either to arrange a time to talk with you by telephone or in person.
Finding me during the school day is fairly easy, once I've established a routine. Look below for my schedule.
Questions & Conversation
I'm happy to answer questions, or chat, most any
time. I generally return phone calls and answer emails within 24 hours.
email address: misterp@mathlore.net
(this relays to both school and home)
official email: peter.petto@lakewoodcityschools.org
preferred voicemail/text number: 440-249-4289
or you can leave a message at my official LHS voicemail: 216-227-5700 ext 18663
My Schedule
You will usually find me in Room B310. During planning and lunch periods, another good place to find me is in one of the teacher work rooms, either right across the hall or in A314. (If I am in neither place, I'm probably at a meeting, or unavailable right then.)
Room B310 is along the eastern edge of the math wing of the third floor, just across the hall from the House 2 office. To see a map, click here.
I am happy to rendezvous with students who have questions; to receive assistance or advice it is better to set something up with me earlier in the day, or best yet the day before.

Unscheduled Help
Before school, I'm nearly always in room B310 by 7:30 am. No appointment for before-school help is required. However, it is first come, first serve, so it's better to make an appointment. Do not hesitate to drop by if you need help, or assistance of any kind.
The best way to get me a message during the day is by email, and you can also try voicemail to my cellphone (or the school's message system) which I will eventually hear.
Most days, I usually remain in B310 until about 3:15 pm, and normally will stick around as long as necessary to help students who come to see me right after school. However, it is first come, first serve so it's much better to make an appointment. Do not hesitate to drop by if you need help, or assistance of any kind.
I generally check for “Remind” messages sent to my “cellphone” regularly, unless I leave it in my car or inadvertently let the battery run out. The #18863 voicemail alerts my school email which I check a few times every school day, so it's the best if your are in a hurry.
Social Media
I post occasionally to my Twitter account @ppetto. The only tag I've generally used is #RangerPride, for anything school-related. I do not follow any current LHS students.
Once upon a time I fancied positing math tidbits to @mathlore, but haven't done that very often.
I also use other social media, but as with Twitter do not follow any students who have not yet graduated. (I do follow graduates, it's a nice way to keep in touch.)
Sending Me a File
The way to send a file to me in response to an assigment is within Google Classroom. It is the only way you will receive full credit for turning in the assignment. If you're sending it to me ad hoc, I prefer you to share via Google Drive or Dropbox. As a last resort attach the file to an email message.
Suggestions Wanted!
I love to hear suggestions, from parents, from students, and from anyone else who is reading this. If you are shy, be anonymous. Unless something looks like an advertisement, I generally will read it.
If you have any thoughts about how this site, or how the instruction of these courses can be improved, I would appreciate your input.
