Thank You

It's hard to put into words how bittersweet the end of the school year is. It has truly been an honor to teach this group of fourth graders. I heard great things about these kiddos last summer as I was preparing the room for them. They have all surpassed my expectations and each and everyone of them have truly left a mark on my heart. 

It breaks my heart that I wasn't able to be with them the last two days of the school year. I was really looking forward to sharing their last moments of 4th grade with them and sending them off at the end of the day. I find peace in knowing that I'll get to see a couple at summer school and that most of the students have younger siblings, which means they still have an excuse to come to NDLC and visit me. 😊 When they get home today, please give them an extra hug from me!

Most of all - Thank you. Thank you for trusting me with your child this year. Thank you for letting me teach them, get to know them, laugh with them, and probably irritate them a little bit. Ha! Thank you for supporting, loving, and encouraging them to work hard each and everyday. I loved coming to work each and everyday this year because I was surrounded by your 4th graders. They are a really special group and I can't wait to hear about all the amazing things they do in their future!
