Welcome back! Hard to believe I am now in my 13th year of teaching, my 12th at 261. The year is certainly off to a busy start.

I am happy to announce that we have a second music teacher in our building! Finally! Her name is Christa Robinson and we are thrilled to have her at 261 Mondays-Wednesdays. For the first time in three years, all of our students will have music in their schedules. She will also be reviving our instrumental program, which I know many students are pleased to hear.

These are the grades I am working with this year, Christa will be working with the other grades.
