Dear Parents,

     I want to personally welcome you to Trinity.  I am thrilled to be your child’s teacher.  Our motto in our classroom is “Fully Rely On God” in all that we say and do.  It is so amazing to see His handiwork as He blends so many different friends and their families to form one new Kindergarten family.  Hopefully by now you have received your letter in the mail along with our class roll.  I am so looking forward to our special visit together.  I will also be doing a brief assessment to help me get to know my friends a little better.  The times for the visits are in 30 minute slots.  The dates for the visits are August 1^st and 2^nd.  Please email me at dallen@trinitywildcats.com for verification or if the time scheduled is not convenient for your family.  I know that many of you have scheduled last minute vacations.  I will continue to do the assessments the first few days of school.  

A FEW HELPFUL REMINDERS…

*Open House and PTO night will be Monday, August 8^th.  We will meet in our room (blue door) at 5:15.  During this time I will share with you a little more about our classroom and you will have an opportunity to sign up for special events throughout the year. 

*The first day of school is Wednesday, August 10^th.  School will begin at 8:00 and dismiss at 11:30. We will begin our regular school day Thursday.  Lunch bunch will begin on Thursday.

*School Supply Boxes will be in the Kindergarten.  You do not need to pick them up.
