There are way too many memories and teachers we have loved over the years to pick one. -Ann Willey
There are way too many memories and teachers we have loved over the years to pick one. The first picture is one of my favorites. Kathleen Holtzman and Pam Freedman. Our household calls them the dynamic duo. What an incredible team. They taught both River and Carson in JK and we love them so much. The photo of my son was taken 3 years after they taught him. It pretty much sums up why they are so great. They took the time to stop and listen to him read after walking by during their busy day. You can see on their faces how much they still care.
The next photo is of my daughter Carson with Sherry Harris. Sherry has instilled a love of reading and learning in her that I suspect she will carry with her through life. Carson often says that she hopes to be a teacher some day just like Mrs. Harris.
Carter misses Ms. Kluttz and Mrs. Brady so much! He misses all of his teachers, friends, and everyone at CD every day!!
We are SO appreciative of all you do!! Wish we could give you a hug or a high five in person, but for now please know how thankful we are for each of you, and all the efforts you make to ensure our kids are excited to learn and feel loved and supported every day! Jenn, Paul, Lucas, Weldon and Brooks
