Dear Parents....Week #5.... Last Week of Continuous Home Learning!!!
It's the Last Week Everyone!!!! We Did It!!!
HAPPY SUMMER!
Hi Everyone! This is it! Our Last Week! Can you believe that we actually accomplished this great endeavor! We are in debt to all of our wonderful parents for the fantastic jobs that you have done during this Continuous Learning at Home time! We also say Thank You to our hard working Putnam City District academic coordinators for the weekly lesson plans and for our wonderful administration, Dr. Fred Rhodes and staff for making this a smooth transition between "School Learning and Home Learning"....And for cutting the year short by two weeks! Ha!... It is also a time in our history that we will never forget! Let's hope that this pandemic subsides soon and will allow us all to return to a New Normal that will encompass all the things that we have found to be the most important to our lives.
One note to end this week.....I have a bit of an announcement.....I have decided to Retire this year! After 32 years of teaching...30 of these here at Putnam City. I have the most wonderful collections of memories to take with me into this next chapter of my life! Teaching will be in my heart always! I will miss each and every one of you! Mrs. Unruh!....You are the BEST! We go together like Cream & Sugar...Well... I should say, "like Chocolate & Carmel!" .... ! Ha! I will miss everyone terribly. This has been an amazing year! Thank you to my wonderful Homeroom Moms, Michelle Rainey and Tonya Peachlyn. You two are amazing! Thank you to all my great parents this year! Your support for our class and your students made the year perfect!
One more time.....Please remember: If you still have questions, please don't hesitate to contact us! We are here to help!
One Last Time.....Look for the next week of Lesson Plans to be posted on Monday on the District website and on our Newsletter, or take a road trip up to the school on Monday-Wednesday for the paper packet during the lunch pick up time.
Have a great week and of course.....Stay Safe, Happy & Healthy!!
We love you all!
Sincerely
Diann McKasson
