Report Card Rewards

A former student's mom brought this website to my attention- it may be of interest to some of our high achievers! The site lists 22 different reward programs for students with exceptional report card grades.

Spring Changes

Dear Students, Parents, and Families,

              Can you believe that it is already spring and that we are
beginning our fourth (and last) marking period? It seems like just
yesterday that I welcomed a group of students who were coming fresh from
kindergarten and now I am about to say goodbye to a group of seasoned first
graders- almost second graders!
             Although I expected to be with our class until the third week
of April, due to complications I’ve had to change my plans. Following my
doctors’ suggestion, my last day with our class will be Friday, March 30th.
This is our last day before Spring Break. Students will start fresh with
our long term substitute, Mrs. Anna Jones, a retired Calvert County
teacher, on their return from Spring Break. Although I will definitely be
in to visit, Mrs. Jones will be the class’ teacher through the end of their
first grade year. Mrs. Jones was able to come in on the Monday before 
Spring Break to get to know our class and routines.
             The class will continue to use many of the same routines,
rules, and customs that we have established, and I’m sure that Mrs. Jones
will have many of her own to add to the mix. Please be patient and
supportive of our class as we make this transition.
             I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for all of your
help, kind words, and communication throughout the year. I hope to update
you all soon on the arrival of our new baby girl!

Sincerely,


Mrs. Casey Grenier
