Can you begin a sentence with "since"?

For example: "Since I have only read said page, I cannot understand it in the context of the entire book".

Forgive me for my lacking of knowledge in the English language. I am going into Junior year in H.S.

" Since I have only read that one page, I cannot understand it in the context of the entire book". There is no shame in the lack of knowledge, especially if you have the desire to learn.
