Thank you and Good-bye!

Dear Families:
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. I want to first thank you for the opportunity to have taught your beautiful children. They are an amazing group of kids who are so ready for First Grade (so don't worry!) They brought such joy to me each and every day. I cannot believe ten months went by so fast. It seems like yesterday when we all first met. I am really going to miss them so much.

I also want to thank you for all the support you have given to me during the school year. You are a great group of parents who I always knew that I could call on for any number of things. Whenever the Kindergarten classes went on school trips, I always knew that I would have a huge number of my parents to come with us. I always had more parents than any other class. Whenever we needed school supplies, all I had to do was ask...the supplies were in the classroom the next day. This made my job so much easier. Thank you.

I want to thank you also for the beautiful plant and the very generous gift that I received on Friday. I meant it when I said that teaching your children was a gift enough. Yet, I do want to thank you so much. Again...it was over the top.

I want to thank my class parents, Keith's mom, Roshi's mom and Lily's mom, for all the coodination they did throughout the year. I know how difficult that job is. Thank you on behalf of myself and the class.

Well...our time is coming to an end and it is always at this time of the year when I get very sad and emotional. Yet, I have all the great pictures and now the wonderful video that Beth Benson made for our class so you and your children will never be far from my thoughts.

As many of you know, I will not be teaching Kindergarten next year. I am moving on to Second Grade. Hopefully, I will have some of my wonderful children again in a couple of years.

Have a wonderful restful and happy summer. If you ever need to speak to me, my door is always open. See you around the neighborhood.

Fondly,
Ms. Grahsm
