Meet the Teacher

Well, we couldn't be more thrilled! After much anticipation, tonight was Meet the Teacher at Tony Tobin. The girls found their class list, took a picture with their teacher and ate dessert before dinner at the Ice Cream Social.

Allison is so excited to have Mrs. Skinner. She is very organized, loving and full of wonderful creativity. She gave each student a dog visor to wear because her class is Dog-Gone special! We will see her in Room 16 on Monday.
Taylor's dream has come true. We got Mrs. Atkinson again!!! Taylor had her for 2nd grade and they are perfect together. We love her as a teacher and a friend and appreciate all of the values she teaches, along with the academic stuff. Taylor was really nervous to check the lists-I don't know what she would have done if it didn't work out, but I don't need to worry about that now. The girls are going to have a wonderful year!
Notice their very special hair dos. I took them to Libby Lu this afternoon to spend some gift cards Allison had from her birthday. They both picked the Royal treatment and look like little princesses. Actually big princesses- I can't believe we have a 4th grader and a 1st grader already!
