Happy Monday!

Dear Second Grade Parents,
        Happy Veteran's day!  It is a little late, but better late than never.  I trust all of you enjoyed the long weekend and you were able to relax.  I know I did!
        I wanted to take this time to thank all of you for coming in to meet with me to discuss the progress of your child.  It was a pleasure for me and allows me the time to get to know you as well.  Thank you for the support you give to your child.  It makes all the difference in the world.
      I also wish to thank Mrs. Dorris for being our November "Secret Reader".  The class had a fantastic time listening to Mrs. Dorris read Thanksgiving Rules  by Laurie Friedman as they happily munched on yummy Popsicles.  Thank you to the Dorris Family for donating the book to the second grade library.  It has been a hot commodity.
      It is hard to believe Thanksgiving is hot on our heels.  I am truly looking forward to our delicious home cooked meal of turkey, gravy and mashed potatoes-yum!!! Let's not forget the fresh apple pie.  Please feel free to join in on the festivities this Thursday in the second grade classroom at 11:45.  It should be a fabulous celebration of thanks and praise to God for all of our blessings.
      In the mean time, I wish all of you a blessed and happy week.  Take care and God bless.

A Fun Day at the Zoo

Dear Second Grade Parents,
   The class had a fantastic time today at the World Famous San Diego Zoo.  Thank you to our drivers and chaperones:  Mrs. Pennell, Ms. Ronan, Mr. Ayotte, and Mrs. Murphy.  The class had fun riding the tour bus and visiting the petting zoo.  Needless to say, the class arrived back to school positively pooped.
   In case you have not been able to stop by school lately, you may not have noticed that second grade now has two new students, Presley McDeavitt and Ben Murphy!  Welcome to SHA the McDeavitt and Murphy Families.  We are excited and happy to have you join our family.
   Thank you to Mrs. Boyd and Mrs. Lutosky for visiting second grade and being the October Secret Readers.  The class enjoyed your storytelling and Bella and Chloe were very proud to share you with their classmates.
     Don't forget, this Friday is a full day due to the fact next week is Parent/Teacher Conferences. Phew...I believe that is all for now.  Please let me know should you have any questions or concerns. 

Have a fabulous evening.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Eileen Sepulveda
Your Second Grade Teacher
