Dear Fourth Grade Families,
As we wrap up the school year we want to thank you for giving us the opportunity to teach your students. It has been a great year and we are so proud of the young people that we’ve worked with. They’ve made so much growth and are wonderful humans!
Sincerely,
Courtney Beerman, Erica Moore, and Rachel Wilcox
