We loved seeing our students at the parade this week (we’ve missed them so much!) and truly appreciate the kind, generous, thoughtful gifts and notes.  It is our pleasure and honor to have this opportunity to teach your children.  Thank you for sharing your child with us this year!

Special thanks to our amazing POQA board who continues to give of their time and talents to help our school be the best!   Thanks again for the gifts and notes of gratitude!  

Love, 
Ms. Smith and Mrs. Teichert
