Kindergarten C

Hi Kindergarten Parents and Friends!

Welcome to Kindergarten! My name is Mrs. Suzanne Cloud and I will be your child’s Kindergarten Teacher this school year. This will be my 19th year of teaching. 11 years of my experience has been spent in the Archdiocese teaching Kindergarten, First, and Second Grades. I also taught Pre-Kindergarten for 7 years in Wynnewood, Pa. I received my Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education from Belmont Abbey College and am certified in grades Kindergarten through 6th.

Teaching has always been a passion of mine and I am looking forward in making this school year a fun and positive one! I believe in celebrating all successes-both big and small! My hope is to instill a love of learning and to help your child grow more academically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually.

Here is some important information for the start of the school year:

Please remember to pack a daily, morning snack as well as a lunch each day for your child. Hot Lunch will be provided this year. Please check our school website for more information. Pretzels will be sold on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Please be sure to put any cash or checks in a marked and sealed envelope. 🙂

In case of any mishaps throughout the school year, please send in a change of clothes for your child ( t-shirt, pants, socks and underwear can be kept in a Ziplock bag in your child’s backpack).

Your child will be given a Green “H” (Homework) Folder. Please be sure to check this folder daily Monday through Thursday. Important notes, homework and other correspondence will be sent home through this folder. Your child will also be given a Red “C” (Class) folder to store their classwork, crafts, projects, etc. This folder will be sent home each Friday. Please be sure to empty out this Red “C” folder and return on Monday or the following school day.

Your child’s Thursday Envelope should be emptied and returned on Friday or on the following school day. This envelope is given out each week as a means of communicating important school information.
