Good Morning K8 Staff!
My Grandma, the daughter of Irish immigrants, loved all things Irish—music, stories, and of course, the color green. But one thing she never quite believed in was the idea of Irish luck. She always said that real success doesn’t come from luck—it comes from the hard work, dedication, and heart you pour into each day. I see that same commitment in each of you, and I’m grateful for the care you show our students and the way you lift each other up.
Today, let’s celebrate a little—whether it’s the Irish spirit, the green attire, or simply the joy of being together. Take a moment to laugh, connect with our kids, and create memories that will stick with them long after the day is over. You are the heart of our school, and I’m lucky and blessed to work alongside each of you!

I’m looking forward to a busy week with kiddos and lots of learning!
Last Wednesday Lindsay and I attended a math fluency class. It was incredibly informative and I’m excited to get to work applying these strategies in our room. Lindsay and I are also looking forward to sharing with you all what we learned!
