OH MY! Our 6th grade buddies are busy rehearsing for their play, “The Wizard of Oz,” which will be performed for the school on Thursday. We can’t wait! What a fun way to see our 6th grade buddies and be a part of our wonderful school community. Last week we had so much fun listening to Nahant Librarian Sharon Hawes read to our class on “Read Across America” day. What a great place to learn we have here at the Johnson School!
This week, I’m finishing report cards, which are making me so happy because I see lots of improvement! Every day in class your children surprise me with their knowledge and participation. I love this time of year when everything starts to “gel” for our little learners!
