It's hard to believe that this is the last full week of school! I know that the children are excited to have summer vacation. Please continue to work on math facts with your child. Even though
many of them have the calculator accommodation, fact fluency with addition,
subtraction, multiplication and addition will help them gain more of an understanding of numbers.
Another great way to help your child is to make sure that they are
reading daily. Have them read to you, a sibling or even a pet! Record their reading times to help our school reach its Every Minute Counts Goal!

The middle school meetings are underway. We have coordinated with the middle schools in order to have a representative help with the meeting and to answer your question about the next step in your child's education. I hope that these meetings will help alleviate some of the stress that you and your child may have about going to a new school.
Personal Background-My husband, Jeff and I moved to Woodbridge in 1999 with our children, Zach & Jenny. Both of them attended Henderson and later graduated from Prince William County High Schools. I volunteered when my children were attending Henderson and later began substitute teaching in 2003. I held many long-term substitute positions and 3 years ago was given the opportunity to teach as a Special Education teacher.
Educational Background: I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from Virginia Tech and a Master's in Education (Special Education K-12) from George Mason University.
Please feel free to contact me if you have questions or concerns about your child.
