Sparta Alpine Open House
Tuesday August 26, 2025
Please bring home the 'Welcome to Kindergarten' lanyard on your child's desk you will find at Open House. This will be to assist students when navigating through the hallways when looking for our classroom the first few weeks of school. Please have your child wear it everyday until they are confident they know where our classroom is.
**This is not necessarily their seat**
--- Meet Your Teacher ---
Ms. Soltesz
Welcome to Alpine Elementary School! My name is Ms. Soltesz and I am your child’s Kindergarten teacher!
I can’t wait to get to know your child, but first I would like to take a moment to introduce myself :)
I grew up in Sparta, NJ and went to Alpine Elementary School back in 2003-2004 when I was in 3rd and 4th Grade! I graduated from Sparta High School in 2013! Before leaving for college I worked at Oak Tree Pre-School with Miss Pat! I attended Montclair State University where I received my undergraduate degree, and William Paterson University where I received my degree in Early Elementary Education and Masters in Early Childhood Education.
I have taught First Grade for six years and I look forward to teaching Kindergarten this year at Alpine!
It is my belief that a child’s success is based on a cooperative parent and teacher relationship. I look forward to meeting and working with all of you throughout this school year. Your involvement, interest, and enthusiasm will help make this a wonderful year of growth for your child.
Thank you for your ongoing classroom support!
