August 22, 2016 Dear Parents, Welcome to the Kindergarten class of 2016-2017! I am Megan Repola and I will have the pleasure of teaching your child this year. This is my fourth year at Catoctin and my sixth year teaching Kindergarten. Kindergarten is a year of growing socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually. Your involvement, interest, and enthusiasm will help make this a wonderful year of growth for you and your child. Throughout the year I will communicate with you through notes, newsletters, quarterly reports and parent-teacher conferences. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, concerns or comments. It is my belief that a child's success is based on a cooperative parent/teacher relationship. I look forward to working with you throughout the year. If your family did not have the opportunity to order school supplies through the PTA’s SchoolKidz program, please feel free to bring all of your child’s school supplies the day of Kindergarten Orientation, August 25th. Place all of the supplies in a bag labeled with your child’s name. I look forward to meeting you at our Kindergarten Orientation on Thursday August 25th. Please no siblings, as it will be very crowded. Thank you for the opportunity to teach your child! Sincerely, Megan Repola Kindergarten Teacher Catoctin Elementary (571) 252-2940 mrepola@lcps.org
