Welcome to 1st grade! My name is Katie Connolly and I will be your child’s teacher this year. I have been teaching 1st grade for many years. First grade is an exciting time in your child’s life. My goal is to give your child every opportunity to not only reach, but exceed their goals while making learning fun and engaging. I also have a strong belief of instilling kindness in children. I am looking forward to working with you and your child to make this a very successful and memorable year.
