Over The Break and Sharing My Story - Your Story...


Dearest Families!
Mrs. Benoy, Mrs. Weaver,  Mr. Crouse with some holiday cheer!



I canNOT believe that we are already at the halfway point!  What an amazing first half it has been!  I cannot say thank you enough for the parental support you have given.  Fifth grade has been ANYTHING but easy from the first day. While I've logged long hours and sleepless nights, that means nothing without the effort that your children have put into the real growth and learning.  You are an amazing group to work with and I am thankful for the experience.  




A Couple of Highlights...
First-
I am super honored by the privelege to teach this compassionate and heart-led young lady.  This month she gained national recognition by +Discovery Education for her contribution to the #CelebratewithDE when she wanted to invent the new holiday Thanksgiving 2.0   - click here to learn more about DaJonae and her great idea where we invite you to be a part!  

Second-
There are no words to express my appreciation for the work of +Dean Shareski and his amazing talent shown in this video where he told my story - which is also the story of your students and the work they are doing.  


In Closing...
With this year quickly approaching our rear view mirrors and becoming history ... I can't imagine what the rest of this school year, the first part of 2016, is going to look like!  I'm simply honored to be a part of it with you!  



Happy New Year - 2016!!!!
