My name is Janet Cary and I have been teaching 3rd grade at Oak Grove Elementary for about 25 years. Obviously, I love 3rd grade!

I have 2 children who are now young adults and a wonderful Pomeranian named Teddy to keep me company.

Thank you for sharing your children with me this year. 3rd grade is a wonderful age to teach as the students are becoming more independent and taking more responsibility for their learning. Their excitement with learning new things is motivating for me as a teacher.
