Dear Mom's, Dad's, Grandparent's and Caregivers of the Purple Room Class,
I want to thank you for making my first year at Dr. Charles Best PS a wonderful experience. Although I will have only been here for 7 months, I feel like the school community has welcomed me with open arms and kindness. I feel like I've been here for years.
I am truly going to miss my class and everyone who has been a part of it.
I would like you to know that my last day with the class (before I leave to have my baby) is on March 24th (just before Easter).
At the moment, we do not know who my OCT replacement will be, but, once that information is shared, I will be sure to share it with all of you.
As you may have noticed, I have to take a day or two off a week for appointments. The baby is fine, it is me who is having some health challenges with the pregnancy and the doctors are keeping a close eye on me. Thank you for your patience and your continual care, support and thoughtfulness.
Rachel and I have worked hard with the class, we have a lot of assessment throughout the months and this will continue with Ms. Tikk (ECE) and the new OCT.
I am completing SK reports and they will be going home later in March. Please stay tuned.
Our blog may be changing to a new address. We will let you know the details for this also.
Please keep checking agendas for more information.
You should also look for JK home reading books in April as our teachers will be getting those set up once your child is ready.
Again, I still have a few weeks, but I want to give you a heads up and say thank you for everything. My first class at Best has a special place in my heart.
I will be back in March of 2017!
Please stay in touch, my e-mail is portos@hdsb.ca
I hope to come in with Mrs. Kimberley and our babies for a visit as well.
See you this week.
Take care,
Sylvia :)

You will be greatly missed in the purple room class. Keith has really enjoyed your teaching style and says "your the best teacher". Thank you for everything! Wishing you and your family much happiness as you embark on this new exciting chapter of your life. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Sharlene, I have had such a great teaching experience this year and I really will miss this bunch. Keith has been such a pleasure to have taught and I am glad that he has enjoyed my "teaching style". He has grown so much both physically, socially and scholastically! It's so great to see them take off around this time. Please keep in touch. I will still have my blogs, but there will be a new blog for the new OCT/ECE team. Take care, Sylvia :)
DeleteThank you for making our first experience with school so amazing! Mason loves his class and teachers and you will be truly missed. Enjoy this next chapter and your time off with the little one:)
