The Last Day of School!










Our second graders are so BRIGHT they have to wear shades!


Thank you to all the students and parents for making this such a wonderful school year. Thank you parents for your support and thank you students for your unique personalities. It has been a joy to teach every single one of you! I will miss you so much. Please do not be a stranger next year. Please "pop" down from time to time to say hello. I hope everyone has a safe and wonderful summer.
