3rd Grade News
Dear Third Grade Parents,
Welcome to our first week of school! We are very excited, getting to know our new students and looking forward to a great school year full of learning, fun, sharing, and new challenges.
Third grade, as we mentioned before, is a year full of challenges where children will begin their journey in the upper elementary to become more independent and acquire a learning responsibility since they will no longer have a classroom assistant. It’s our hope as teachers that we may guide our students together along with your support which is extremely important for a child’s development.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or concerns. We will try to respond within 24 hours.
