This Week
Welcome to the beginning
of the 2015-16 school year! I am
excited to be here, as always. I LOVE
teaching for the Department of Defense and I believe that our DoDEA
students are very fortunate to be attending the finest American schools while experiencing life in a foreign culture. I take the responsibility of teaching
your child very seriously while still maintaining an
atmosphere of joy and love of learning in the classroom. Your child is going to have a great year here
at Patch Elementary! Homework currently is reading
for 20 minutes per night. Please note, spelling homework does not begin until the week of September
14, 2015. Also, the school is currently awaiting approval for this years MobyMax subscription. I will
keep you updated via this Newsletter.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE take the time to email
me now at Julie.faulk@eu.dodea.edu so that I will
have your correct email(s) to enter into my distro. list.
Also, let me know within this email how your child will
be getting home on the first day of school and the subsequent days of school.
