Dear Families of Room 12, 

I want to thank you all so much for a wonderful school year! I truly appreciate your willingness to donate supplies, volunteer for special events, and mostly, the work you do each day supporting your child to be his/her best. I have enjoyed teaching this enthusiastic, intelligent, creative, and hard-working group of students, and will miss each of them.
