Reflecting on our year together

This year has come to an end and I am thankful for your partnership and patience with how our year ended. As I reflect on this year I want to remember how strong, courageous and kind our first graders were not just during remote learning but all year.







I am so proud of each and every child for how they had a growth mindset, challenged themselves academically, showed compassion and grew together as a crew. We have had many wonderful adventures this year from visiting our grandfriends, playing togetherness games, going to the garden and learning on zoom.





"Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children, play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood. "
-Fred Rogers

Thank you again for a wonderful year with a wonderful group of first graders! I love getting to watch each child grow and partnering with each of you. Have a great summer.
