Emory finished up his third year with his teacher, Mrs. Tipton. She was his second grade teacher and then she "looped up" with her class to third and then fourth grade. It has been such a great experience for him to have her for three years. She knows what he is capable of and doesn't let him get away with anything. We can only hope that we will be so fortunate to have many more Mrs. Tiptons who will care so much as Emory continues his school career.
Ellie too had an amazing teacher in Mrs. Ledford. Mrs. Ledford found so many different ways to make each day fun that as a parent I found myself not wanting to miss a day volunteering in her class. Ellie has learned so much and grown so much this year with Mrs. Ledford. We wish that she could have "looped up" for two more years! We will miss Mrs. Ledford in the classroom but look forward to spending time with her and her children this summer as friends.
Dan and I could not be more proud of Emory and Ellie and how much they have accomplished this year in school. Each of them is dedicated to doing their best and it shows in their school work and grades. Emory finished up fourth grade with straight A's for the entire year making this his third year of straight A's. Way to go Emory! Ellie earned all Ms and Ps this year. She finished up first grade with all Ms which means that she Mastered each of the areas that she was required to learn as a first grader. She also finished the year reading on a third grade level. Great job, Ellie! We love you both!
