Dear Kindergartners,

Wow! I just wrote that greeting for the last time! Next time I write a message to you, it will say “Dear First Graders!” You have done such a great job this school year. We had seven and a half great months together in school and we rocked distance learning for the past six weeks out of school. You are amazing! I wasn’t sure what learning like this would be like, but you all worked so hard and made it so fun for me. I can see in your work how much you have grown up this year and how ready you are to be in first grade.

I hope you have a really great summer! Have fun, play outside and spend time with the people you love. I’m so excited to be your teacher again next year and I can’t wait to see you in the fall! I love you and I miss you!

Love,
Ms. Swartz
