New Shout Outs
Mr. Anderson, the Jazz Band and our Elementary School students that helped serve at the dinner.
A big shout out to Mrs. Coleman for being an awesome 2nd grade teacher! We are grateful for her patience and kindness. A big thank you to Mrs. Coleman!!
Mrs. David is very a hard-working teacher and has greatly helped in the development of my kid.
My daughter has thrived and grown so much while in Ms. Loumeau's room this year! The year has been full of change and challenges, yet Ms. Loumeau has been the calming and consistent presence that my child needed to excel. We so appreciate all of the hard work she puts in each and every day to make Millburn the awesome community that it is!
With it being teacher appreciation week, I just wanted to extend our appreciation for Mrs. Pursche. Mrs. Pursche is an amazing teacher who has made our daughter’s first grade year a truly amazing one! With my husband and I both being teachers, we know how hard the last 3 years have been. Teaching is tough right now, but Mrs. Pursche doesn’t make it feel that way. Kailyn loves school, in fact she tells us that she wants “less weekend” and “more school.” She looks forward to school every day, and that is a huge blessing as a parent. We have Mrs. Pursche to thank for that. She pushes her students to achieve their individual goals and keeps learning fun, all while providing a nurturing environment where students feel happy and safe. The progress Kailyn has made in reading, writing, and math is beyond remarkable and we owe that to Mrs. Pursche’s dedication to her students and teaching.
We can't express our thanks enough to such a great teacher. We are truly blessed!
Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!
Thank you!
