Letter from Señorita Brown
To the St. Mark's Community,
Thank you for such a wonderful year at St. Mark's! It has been a very difficult decision, but I will not be returning to St. Mark's next year. I feel my heart belongs to teaching elementary at one grade level. That is my hope for the next school year. I am beyond thankful and blessed for being able to teach your children and get to know them as people. They are kind, friendly and wonderful! I will miss them very much, but I know they will continue to have great successes in their lives. Thank you for welcoming me into this community and making me feel like I matter. I will be keeping you all and this community in my prayers.
Thanks for a wonderful year and God Bless,
Señorita Brown
