Wow&#8230; I cannot believe it is the end of the school year.  What a crazy year it has been!  We all took on new and unexpected challenges during these uncertain times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I reflect on this year, I think about and appreciate the positives.  In December 2019, I graduated from University of Michigan-Dearborn with my Bachelor of Arts Degree in Early Childhood Education, along with my teaching certifications.  I became part of the Cotter and Salina family shortly after and began teaching my first class.  I remember feeling excited to meet and work with your child!  Each and every student brought a unique personality that strengthened our classroom community.  Before we knew it, we took our learning to a remote basis.  You became a key part in your child&#8217;s learning development.  And for that, I thank you!  Without your cooperation and support, none of this would be possible.   I thank you for the phone calls, pictures, and Remind messages.  It was wonderful to see and hear the progress your child made during this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I enjoyed being your child&#8217;s teacher this year, and I wish them the best of luck as they continue their academic development!  Have a wonderful summer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Announcements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before we start our last activity of the 2019-2020 school year, here are some announcements&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Free Meal Distribution in the Summer<br><\/strong>Dearborn Public Schools will continue to do free meal distributions during the summer.
