Dear Parents of First & Second Grade Students,

         

I am excited to announce that I am pregnant and my family of three will be growing to four. My intention is to work until the end of the school year; as the baby is due to arrive in the beginning of July.  I will be taking a year leave of absence to be at home with my family.  In the meantime, I am excited to keep working hard alongside your students every day. 

The teacher assigned to take over the class in my absence is not known at this point, but we will be working very hard to find a year-long substitute who is a good fit for the first and second graders.  Please keep an eye out for communication from the office regarding the search process, including a call for parent volunteers.

 I am planning to discuss the upcoming changes with your children before the break.   I hope that our conversations will offer children, especially our first graders, reassuring information that will help them make the easiest possible transition to a new teacher next year.  If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me here at school.

Thank you so much for your support.

Sincerely,

Randilee Raynor

1^st & 2^nd Grade Teacher
