Parent(s)/Guardian(s)
Welcome to one of the most incredible years your child will have in his/her school career! Fifth grade is an exciting time as adolescents embark upon new adventures in the world of learning. This is a year of important transitions in which the acquisition of new skills is accelerated. Students are expected to cultivate and enhance their academic and social skills by demonstrating responsibility inside and outside the classroom.
It is my goal, to foster an environment that encourages student growth academically and socially, but I cannot do it alone. As a parent, you are the most influential person in your child’s life. We can maintain each child’s self-esteem and build a secure foundation for future growth and success by working together. Here are two ways we can become a team dedicated to your child’s development:
-
Remember that each student is an individual and progresses at his/her rate, acquiring and applying skills at a different pace throughout the school year. Celebrate and acknowledge all success, no matter how small it may seem! This will help keep your child enthusiastic about learning and proud of their accomplishments.
-
Communicate daily with your child, track your child’s progress and nightly assignments online, and look through their schoolwork daily. They will have important information regarding homework assignments and notices entailing exciting events throughout the school year.
I am honored to be an active participant in your child’s education and look forward to working with you throughout the school year. If you have ANY questions, please do not hesitate to contact me via phone or e-mail.
Sincerely,
Natalie Ozga

Welcome
Students:
I hope you all had a fantastic summer filled with adventure, rest, and time creating wonderful memories with family and friends! Summertime is my favorite season, allowing me time to reset, relax, and recharge with my three boys. Some of our summer adventures took us to Dorney Park 
The first few days and/or weeks might be challenging, but know you are not alone. This is my second year teaching at Flocktown. Last year, I taught 5th-grade math and science at Flocktown, and before arriving here, I taught 8th-grade at Long Valley Middle School for 18 years. I am new to 4th grade team, so we will learn a lot together!
I’m excited to work with all the 4th-grade teachers, and I have heard nothing but wonderful things!
In the meantime, enjoy the rest of your summer by spending time with your family and friends! 😎☀️ And for those who can attend, we look forward to
meeting you at our walk-through on August 27th from 11 - 12pm. If you don't make it, no sweat, we'll see you on opening day!😁
Warmly,
Mrs. Ozga
