Dear Kindergarten Families,
Welcome to Kindergarten at Cherokee Park Elementary School! I am looking forward to learning and growing with your child this year. As their kindergarten teacher, I ensure this year to be an exciting time for you as well your child, as they begin their official journey to becoming a life-long learner. This year I will spend time encouraging positive social interactions among the students, helping them to become more independent during the school year, and nurturing a classroom of respectful and caring children. This will also be a year of tremendous academic growth. You will see your child blossom into an early reader and writer. Additionally they will build many math skills. We will also explore several topics in science and social studies. I enjoy having fun in the classroom, but also know the importance of creating a structured and organized learning environment. Thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of their journey.
