Welcome to a new year!

Hello Parents/Guardians,

My, name is Caitlin Madsen and I am thrilled to be your child's 5th grade teacher ! We have a tremendously exciting—and innovative—year ahead!
The opportunity to teach your child is a privilege and a responsibility I take very seriously. I will do my best to motivate, comfort and appreciate your child and all the gifts he or she will bring to our classroom this year.
But I will need your help. Whether it’s supplementing online learning at home, ensuring your child completes assignments, helping him or her study for a test, or simply asking your child, “What surprised or excited you in the classroom today?”, your encouragement and support are going to make all the difference!
  • Your responses to our parent survey can also help a lot as I get to know you and your child.
