Have a Wonderful Summer

Dear Parents,
I wanted to send a heartfelt 'thank you' for such a wonderful year. It has been an absolute pleasure working with you and your families. Your children have really left a lasting impression on me, and when I think back to this school year I will remember all of the fond memories that we've shared together. Please have a safe and fantastic summer and I will see you in the next school year!
Warmest Regards,
Mrs. Alvarado
