Welcome back, families! I am so excited to begin this year learning with all of you. Though it may seem different or unique, we are going to have a fabulous year together!

Here are a few highlights about me...

• I am a recent graduate from OSU and am currently completing my Masters in Reading and Literacy. Go Pokes!

• My family and I are from Frisco, Texas, and we have a miniature schnauzer named Doodle.

• I have one younger sister, Faith, who is a sophomore at OSU this year.

• Some of my favorite things include reading, Aspen coffee, plants, the beach, traveling with friends and family, and kids!

I am delighted to have your child in my class this year. My goal is to inspire a love for reading within each student, as well as the values of of love, respect, positive relationships and work ethic. Please know that I am here to make your child's learning experience the very best that it can be. I wholeheartedly believe that every child can learn and reach success, and I look forward to partnering with you in this effort.

Sincerely,

Ms. Bollom
