It was wonderful to see so many of you at Back to School Night. I look forward to speaking with each one of you regarding your child’s strengths and challenges, and to make sure we set the tone for a great partnership this year.  Please remember if you ever have any questions, feel free to contact me.  I will be contacting you within the next two weeks to schedule a conference.
