A note from Mrs. Lethcoe...
Dear Montclair Community,
I wanted to share with you that I have been asked by the district to join Cody Elementary next
year as their new Administrative Intern. This is a great opportunity for me to partner with
Cody’s new principal Jason Farwell as he transitions into his new role. I am beyond thankful to
all of you for making these last three years here at Montclair such a wonderful and welcoming
experience for me. I will treasure the relationships that I have established with the students
and families here at Montclair. I will miss each and every one of you. Please know I am only an
email away and will be right down the road. My new position starts in August. I will be here
through the end of this school year.
With sincere gratitude,
Mrs. Lethcoe
