Fourth Grade is an important year for you and your child. It is a
transitional year as it marks the beginning of the intermediate grades and
the end of primary grades. Additional emphasis will be placed on
responsibility, self-control and accountability. I, as your child's fourth
grade teacher want to equip and prepare your son/daughter with the essential
tools needed for fifth grade and middle school. My bar will be set high...as
we will always be reaching to be the BEST that we can BE!!!
I look forward to the partnership I will have with you in educating the young
mind of your child.
Remember...You are THE ESSENTIAL PIECE in your child's education!Please feel
free to contact me anytime. The best way to do this would be via email or a
note in your child's agenda.
