Mrs. Nelson's Last Week
I can't believe that it is already time to say good-bye. It breaks my heart to say that this is my last week with these spunky, caring, and loving first graders. I want to thank all the parents, students, and Mrs. Baldus for being part of my journey! I am truly grateful and have ENJOYED my time in this classroom and will not forget all the kind hearts!!
