Dear Families,                                                                                                                                                            September  2024                                                     

Welcome to H.C. Johnson School!  I hope everyone had a wonderful summer.  My name is Miss Engel and I am very excited to be working with you and your child throughout the upcoming school year. I will be working extremely hard to establish our classroom community as a happy, comfortable, learning environment where we all do our personal best!  

Kindergarten plants the seed for future learning.  There is an exciting year waiting, designed to promote and enhance your child’s growth and development.  This year will be filled with discovery and joy as your child works and socializes in an environment that is warm, safe and challenging. 

I believe that each child brings their own unique talents, experiences, and personality to share in our classroom.  I look forward to learning with your child and sharing a curriculum with them that is enriching and sparks their interest.  They will be provided with instruction in the core-subject areas of English/Language Arts, Writing, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies.  The five specials they will have the benefit of participating remotely in are physical education, music, art, technology and media.  

I am so looking forward to working together with you to make this a successful school year. Please sign up for our class Remind.

( Instructions and codes are enclosed in the folder. you will receive it at the Kindergarten Orientation in August.)  

The following supplies would be helpful, however, not mandatory for the start of kindergarten.

• Plastic pencil box 

• Crayons

• Washable markers / twistable colored pencils 

• 2 low odor black dry erase markers

• Box of tissues, baby wipes, and hand sanitizer pump bottle to share with the class. (These items are optional)

Together we can make this a great experience! Thank you in advance for your support.  

****Please have your child wear the name tag distriuted at Kindergarten Orientation each day throughout   the entire month of September.

Use a pencil to write in your child's dismissal information: bus #, circle W for walker, circle Child Care days. ( Registered students only) 

This information is very important and helpfulto ensure a safe school departure. 

Walkers will be dismissed out the front of the school. A staff member will be at the door to transfer  your child to you. Please have identification available if needed.                           

Thank you for entrusting me with your child this year,

Fondly,

Miss Cynthia Engel
