First Day!



We had a great first day at Pine Ridge!  Isn't this a great looking group?!?  There was a lot of excitement in the air as we met new friends and also reconnected with ones from last year.  Our first few weeks are going to involve a lot of procedures and getting comfortable in a new building.  I am so humbled to be able to walk along side of each of you as we teach these precious children more about Jesus and HIS love for them. It is going to be a wonderful year.

Our first day was full of activity.  In the morning the students experienced their first chapel at Pine Ridge, met new friends in a scavenger hunt, learned a lot of new procedures and went to Art.  We had a taste of a Reading and Bible lesson in the afternoon.  The students are settling in nicely and are doing a fabulous job!

A few reminders for this week:
  • This Wednesday, September 2, is Parent Night at Pine Ridge.  I will be going over classroom information from 7:00-7:30 in the classroom.  If you are not able to attend simply send me an email and I will be sure to send the information home with your child in their Friday folder.  Mr. Howell will also go over general Pine Ridge information from 7:35-8:00 followed by the 5th and 6th grade teachers presenting classroom information from 8:00-8:30.  This is a great opportunity to learn more about your child's school day and get involved at Pine Ridge.  I hope you can make it!
  • We will be decorating our writers notebooks on Friday morning.  Please send in any photos, stickers, paper, etc. that your child may want to make their notebook special for them. 
  • Any donations to our classroom of Kleenex or hand sanitizer is always greatly appreciated.  We go through these items very quickly!  
Thank you for your prayers this year.  I can't wait for tomorrow!
