Fun Fact: My dad is the Artist in Residence at Simpsonville Elementary. He does pencil drawings of famous people, actors, and comic book characters. He goes to many Comicons around the south to display and sell his art. I cosplay as Wonder Woman to help him out. It's so much fun when kids think I am really her! 

  I know third grade is going to be the BEST grade EVER! They are fun and so lovable. I truly believe that any child can succeed if they put their mind to it and if they receive the encouragement and support they need from their family and teacher.
