Thank You!

Dear Parents,

It has been my pleasure teaching your children this year.  I have learned as much from them as they have learned from me.  Each and every child is unique, creative, loving, caring, special, and a true gift. I will miss the kids immensely as they wrap up the end of the year and prepare for a fun summer!

I just want you all to know that the kids are in great hands.  All of the lessons and fun projects that are planned for your children are still going to happen in and out of the classroom.  Joy and Shari have been wonderful! I am also in close contact with the teachers and administration daily to support the transition in any way that I can. I will be visiting a few times before the school year ends.  I look forward to bumping into you all and visiting with the children. I miss them already!

Have a wonderful rest of the year!

Sincerely,
Jill Davis

Dear Parents,

We had a such a wonderful time listening to the story, Pocket Kisses, by Willa Perlman.  We learned how the story was created and the ideas behind the writer's concept.  Willa also shared the entire process a writer potentially experiences in hopes that their book will be published.  Thank you so much Willa!

Sincerely,
Mrs. Davis
