What a wonderful time to notice the blossoms, tulips, and the growth in our students. Can you see just how much your student(s) have grown? It’s hard to believe we’re almost at the end of the academic year. Are your students reading more, adding faster, and asking more questions? Why not leave them little academic love notes: “You really rocked your times tables today,” “Way to problem-solve that experiment.”

Big and small progress all deserve to be celebrated. My boys are becoming more independent with their writing, and I’m really enjoying hearing their unique voices come through.

We are hiring a teacher. Please share on social media and with friends. This will be so helpful in finding some wonderful candidates. Inquire at scholltess@gmail.com for full job description.
