Thank you for sharing your wonderful children with me this year.  They have grown enormously and have learned a great deal.  I look forward to seeing them in the hallways in the fall and hearing about their first grade accomplishments.  

Have a safe and fun summer!

Dear Families,

Thank you for attending Friday's music program.  We were the only class with 100% attendance.  It meant a great deal to your children to look out at the audience and see your faces.  It is also a testament to how supportive you are of your children and our school. 

Thank you for all of your support during a school year which had it's share of challenges.  I appreciate the excellent teaching and nurturing presence provided by Mrs. Eddy, Mrs. Lamphere and Mrs. Harding during my extended medical absence.  Thank you also to our dedicated parent volunteers:  Sandy Schlegel, Tara Trapasso and Samantha Little.  

Our last week of school will include some fun events along with some regular learning days.
