Hello Gator Families! It is bittersweet to be sending the final newsletter of the year. Thinking back to the first one, I remember feeling so unsure and honestly a little scared of our return to school. With all of the changes to the schedule and new protocols for safety, I wondered how long it would take for all of us to adjust. As always, your children wowed me with their flexibility, understanding, and perserverence to be safe and still manage to have fun at school! This year has been full of interesting things, but one thing remains constant- the students shine through it all. They are focused, creative, engaged, and always fun! Most importantly though, they are kind. I can always count on them to include me on their team at recess or in the classroom, to dance with me at our assemblies, or to pull me around on my holiday sleigh. I can always count on them to do that for each other too. I look forward to seeing your students each day and wish all of you a great, fun-filled summer!
