It is my pleasure to spend this school year with all of my new fabulous fourth graders! I have an exciting year planned and can't wait to meet all of you. My family and I had an amazing summer. We spent time with our extended family and enjoyed time at Lake Tahoe. We also enjoyed camping in Big Sur. Some personal information about me: my husband and I have two children, Claire who is thirteen and Cole who is eleven. I have been an elementary teacher for twenty two years. In addition, I have my master's degree in education administration. Students will have many opportunities to excel in all areas of the curriculum and rise to the exciting challenges of fourth grade. Fourth grade is a huge transitional year for students. Students will continue to take charge of their education by learning organization, coming to class prepared and that working hard to achieve their goals can be a rewarding experience. I also would like our class to believe that everyone in our class has something to offer and contribute to one another. I am looking forward to an amazing school year with you and your wonderful children!Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. Sincerely,
