About the Teacher/Welcome Msg

We are so excited about this coming year! We have already gotten off to a great start!

If you have any questions/concerns, feel free to e-mail me, call the school and leave a voice message, or send a note with your child. 

I look forward to teaching your child and working with you this year! :)
