Dear Emerson Families,

It has been a successful 2007-2008 school year. The students have flourished both academically and socially.

Our school environment has been very positive and students feel safe and ready to learn. They have taken pride in beautifying their school and contributing to the overall atmosphere.

Of course you, our parents, have been instrumental in supporting and encouraging your children to realize the importance of school and their education. Together, Emerson's dedicated staff and involved parents are making the difference in the lives of our students. THANK YOU!

I enjoy being a part of this school community and love being with your children every day. I hope they have learned as much from me, as I have learned from them. Every child is special. Every child deserves the best experiences we can give him. I feel fortunate to be a part of their lives and education, and look forward to another wonderful school year in 2008-2009.

Enjoy your summer and make lasting memories with those you love.
