Congrats! Your kids are awesome!

I just wanted to let you in on a little bit of 1st Grade Awesomeness. 

Last Thursday and Friday I was gone from school at a 2-day training. During that time your children were taught by one of the best subs in the district. (Ask your kiddo about her. She's fantastic.) Anyway, she left a note saying that the students were spectacular in my absence! Hoorah! Give them a pat on the back and a squeeze for being respectful learners in the face of change! I couldn't be prouder.
