Dear 2LO Students & Parents,
We are very excited to welcome you all to what should prove to be a wonderful school year! 2nd Grade is filled with exciting and engaging learning opportunities and we believe your child will thoroughly enjoy themselves! We hope you are enjoying the last few weeks of summer and we cannot wait to hear about all your amazing adventures! This summer, for our families, was spent traveling. My family (Mrs. Luciano) went from ball field to ball field watching my two boys, Christopher and Timothy, play for their respective travel baseball teams. They had a great time, some great wins and tough losses, but overall it was a super experience that ended with a tournaments at Ripken (where Timmy's team finished first at Pigeon Ford Tennessee) and Diamond Nation for Christopher!
My family (Mrs. O'Neill) traveled to Portugal, where we explored beautiful cities, enjoyed delicious food, and spent time soaking in the sights and culture. We also visited Cape Cod with our almost two year old son Liam , where we relaxed on the beach, collected seashells, and took peaceful walks by the ocean. When we weren’t traveling, we loved spending long summer nights by our pool, swimming and enjoying BBQ's together!
We have many wonderful things planned for this year and cannot wait to get the classroom ready for all of you! We hope that as your summer winds down and you are preparing to get back to school, you have some time to reflect on the awesome memories you've made this summer! They should prove to be a great inspiration for our personal narrative writing unit and we cannot wait to read all about it! Enjoy the last few days of summer!
Best,
Mrs. Luciano & Mrs. O'Neill
