• Welcome to First Grade!
     
    I am so excited to begin this journey with you and your child. First grade is a time of learning, growing, developing curiosity, and gaining independence and confidence. During the first week of school, your child created a hope or dream that he or she hoped to accomplish this year. My dream is to create a learning environment in which each child feels respected, engaged, valued, challenged, and comfortable taking academic risks. 
     
    I am your partner in your child's education. Please let me know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns about your child. I am available by email or phone, and my contact information is listed below. Thank you for sharing your wonderful children with me-we have a dynamic group of young learners and I am so excited to see what the year holds!
