Wrapping up the 2012-2103 School Year
The end of the school year is fast approaching. We have many things to look forward to including Awards Day and Track and Field Day.
I hope that many of you are planning on taking advantage of the summer opportunities that Amy Austin, our school social worker, sent home a month or so ago.
With St. Paul Schools "Stong Schools Strong Communitites", students will be going to a school in their own area. Many of our students will be moving on to different school. Even though change is hard, we can look at this as an opportunity for all.
Staff in Room 1201
Our current Teaching Assistants are Ms. Sarah, Ms. Sharon, and Mr. Sai. Mr. Sai joined our classroom February when Ms. Stacia moved to Texas.
