Mrs. McKermitt's Second Grade/Room 31

Welcome to Room 31!  Second grade is such an exciting grade to teach.  The chidren are anxious to make their First Holy Communion and they are becoming much more independent.  I look forward to a new year with new friends and can't wait to get back into a classroom routine.

From Mrs. Petrash:

 

Dear First Communicant Families,

I just wanted to give you an update on the First Communion pictures. There isn't one. I have reached out to the photographer and have not yet heard back. Hopefully this week, we will be receiving printed proofs of the pictures for you to order from and an online code. Once we receive the proofs, we will send them home right away. Once you see the pictures, you should be able to order online.

Easter blessings,

Mary Petrash
