It's going to be a very busy next two months, so hold on!

We have had a lot of sick kids already and I think the crud has made it's way through our class. I am hoping that we are done now! Thank you for keeping your child home when they are sick. We take as many precautions as we can in class, but we can only prevent so much.

Here is what we will be studying the next few weeks in third grade. If you have any questions, please let me know.

Welcome to 3rd grade. If you don't know me yet, come on in and visit anytime. This is my 2nd year at ECS and I can't think of anywhere else I would rather be. I will be sending home a note to parents with our schedule and a little about what we will be doing this year. I am looking forward to a great year with some amazing kids!

Thank you for the wonderful welcome from everyone at ECS! I feel so blessed to be a part of such a wonderful school.

Thanks to these amazing students, I am feeling at home already. We are settling into a routine and getting used to eachother. I enjoy every day and am looking forward to a wonderful year.

I am a long-time Ellensburg resident and have been married to Jim for almost 20 years. We have 2 daughters, a son-in-law and a beautiful granddaughter. I love to read, scrapbook, quilt, travel and play games.
