About 1st Grade
This year will be an exciting time for your 1st grader! They will learn many new academic and social skills, and together we will build a foundation for a lifetime of learning. Students will also explore the Catholic faith and continue to learn how to be children of Christ! I am looking forward to building relationships with students and families in order to have a fun and successful year!
