Transitions! Congratulations First Graders and Welcome Kindergartners!

This time of year is particularly exciting!  There are many exciting milestones!  Today Mrs. Parnell and Mrs. Hoyt had lunch with some former kindergarten students.  These now first graders maintained their writing skills over the summer by keeping a journal that they shared with us on Tuesday.  In recognition of their efforts to meet our summer challenge we invited them to a lunch date and awarded each with a new book.  Have a great year rock stars!

 Yesterday was also a very exciting day!  We met our new Room 103 families!  Students were invited to visit for an hour with an adult.  Incoming kindergartners listened to a story and toured the building while their respective adults completed some forms and learned about kindergarten.  It is going to be a wonderful year!

Orientation Follow Up

Today we had our Kindergarten Orientation.

We welcomed many families back to Pine Glen and we introduced many new families to the Pine Glen family.  We will have 15 students in our class this year. 

It has been wonderful getting to know all of the families of our students through our Listening Conferences.  Please remember that Mrs. Kerr and I are available to communicate with our families whenever the need arises.  We are happy to schedule listening conferences in the coming week for anyone who may have missed out.
