Dear Students & Families,
Welcome to Third Grade! I hope this letter finds you well, and that each of you had the opportunity to enjoy some fun in the sun this summer. I am busy getting the classroom ready, and have lots of new school supplies waiting for you inside your desk. Click on the tab for a list of additional supplies you may wish to purchase. If possible, please also bring in a favorite book that you have read over the summer.
Our lunch this year will be at 12:55, so we will be having a morning snack daily. Please remember to pack a healthy snack and refillable water bottle each day. We do have students with allergies, so please check to make sure all snacks are nut (peanut/ tree nut/ sesame seed) free.
I am so excited to be your teacher this year! Let me take a minute to introduce myself. This will be my 18th year at JFK. I have taught different grade levels, but have been teaching 3rd grade for the past fourteen years. I love spending time with my family. I have a daughter, Gabby, who is going into 12th grade and a son, Leo, who is entering 9th grade. In my free time, I enjoy reading, cooking, and doing crafts. I also have many pets, including a dog, three cats, and a bird.
Ms. Panatieri will also be working with students in our class. We are excited to be working together and looking forward to getting to know each of you.
I can’t wait to meet you! The first day of school is Tuesday, September 2nd. I will be standing outside the classroom door C-7 waiting for you to arrive!
I am looking forward to a memorable and successful school year together.
Warm regards,
Mrs. Randazzo
