Welcome Back!

Welcome to a new school year!  It was wonderful to see everyone at open house.  I hope everyone is finally settling in.  This is my second year teaching fifth grade at Prairieview and I look forward to getting started in November.  Before I moved to Prairieview I taught Language Arts and Reading for five years at Lakeview.  As you know I am on my maternity leave until November and Mrs. McHale is teaching your students until that time.  I am working on settling in with my 2 year old, Jonathan, and my 2 month old, Tomas.  We had a great summer and are looking forward to the fall and football season.

I know this past week has been very busy, learning new routines and going over classroom expectations.  I hope everyone enjoyed the PBIS assembly on Friday.  Next week is busy as well with our first round of MAPS testing.  Students should be sure to have a healthy breakfast and get plenty of sleep.

Important Days:
Monday- No School, Labor Day
Wednesday- Math MAPS Testing
Thursday- Reading MAPS Testing
