Dear Parents, Welcome to third grade! I am looking forward to sharing a wonderful and exciting year of learning with your child. There is a great deal to discover and experience in third grade. I know this year will be a very rewarding one for all of us. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself and welcome you to my classroom. My name is Sue Lindquist. I have been teaching in District #95 since 1988. I am very excited to be teaching third grade this year! I grew up in Warrenville, Illinois. Eastern Illinois University is where I earned my undergraduate degree. I received my master’s degree from National Louis University in Curriculum and Instruction. I also earned a degree in Administration from Eastern Illinois University. All of these degrees were achievements that I had eagerly pursued ever since I was in third grade and knew that I wanted to become a teacher. Therefore, I’m thrilled to be teaching third grade this year, and am looking forward to a terrific year with your child! I am confident that by working together, your child will have a successful year in third grade. Sincerely, Sue Lindquist
