Dear Families,
My name is Ms. Wright and I would like to welcome you and your child to room 114. This is my 21st year teaching. Time sure flies when you love what you do! I have many exciting things planned this year in the areas of literacy, math, science and social studies. As of right now, we have 23 students registered to be in our class; 12 girls and 11 boys.
Dearborn Public Schools is initiating a “Soft Start” program for incoming kindergarten students this year. The purpose of the Soft Start program is to provide shorter days and an awesome introduction to the kindergarten teacher and to your child’s school on a part-time schedule for the first week of school.
The start of school is an exciting time in the lives of children and families. Our goal for Soft Start is to make the start to school positive and successful for all students. Thank you for your patience with the part time schedule. Your child will need to arrive to school at 8:35 a.m. and will be dismissed at 11:45 a.m. each day for the first week.
I look forward to meeting you and your child on Tuesday, September 8th at 8:35 a.m. Our class will line up on the #4 (it is painted on the blacktop) on the south side of Lindbergh. On the first day, I welcome you to walk in with us and stay in our classroom until around 9:00 a.m. Afterwards, our principal, Mrs. DeNeen will request your presence for a brief informational meeting in the cafeteria.
What does your child need to bring with them on the first day?
- backpack
- small healthy snack
Please do not bring school supplies on the first day of school.
See you on Tuesday!
Ms. Wright
