Welcome Mr. Thompson!

Your child should have brought home a letter from Ms. Greer today that, along with my newsletter, shared the 4th grade's big news. Because of our large classes, we have received a new teacher; Mr. Garrick Thompson is coming to us from Lakeview Elementary. I hope you will join me in making sure Mr. Thompson feels welcomed at Jones!

Because of our "contract" with the looping format, none of our original class was automatically moved into the new classroom. If, however, you would like to have your child moved into Mr. Thompson's room, you must call the school office and let Ms. Greer know by the end of day tomorrow (September 11). Please know that I would completely understand if you choose to move your child. I would not take it personally as I feel we all shared a great year together. I want you to do what you feel is best for your child.

On a side note, we have been ardently practicing the Preamble in class.
Click here for a repeating loop of the song. WARNING: The song really sticks in your head! If you listen to it for even a short time, you will not be able to stop singing it! Enjoy!
