Dear Parents/Guardians,

 

                      Hi, my name is Amy Gandy. I will be spending a great deal of time with your child this year. Because of this, I’d like to take this opportunity to tell you a few things about myself both personally and professionally.

                      I was raised in Cedarville and am now currently living in Millville with my husband Kyle and our daughter Kylie. I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I love hiking and being outside in nature. This is my second year teaching, but I have been in the district for 3 and a half years. I worked 2 and a half years as a 1^st grade paraprofessional at R.M Bacon Elementary. Last year I substituted and did two long term positions for 4^th and 1^st grade also at R.M Bacon Elementary School.

                      I have planned a very exciting year for my students. I’m looking forward to teaching your child how to read, write and to do many other things. Some of the fun things that we will do include hatching baby chicks, learning the life cycle of a butterfly by raising caterpillars, learn about our community in Social Studies and have some fun with Science.

                      As a parent, you are the most important person in your child’s life, and we need to work together for your child’s benefit. I need your support for the homework assignments, academic goals and classroom discipline plan I have set for the students. I will keep you informed about your child’s progress. With school and home working together, I know your child can have a successful year. Welcome to First Grade!

 

      Sincerely,
