Welcome to first grade!! I am Mrs. McGuire and I am excited to be your child’s teacher this year! I hope you and your family have had a fun and enjoyable summer. I have been very busy planning and getting our classroom ready for this year. As a teacher, I will endeavor to create an educational partnership with you and your student that will foster courage, determination, and passion for knowledge. In addition to this, my commitment will be to provide your student with a nurturing and challenging educational environment that will ensure his/her academic success in first grade.
It is important that we have open communication and I want you to know you may email me at mmcguire@pinellasprimary.org or phone me. During school hours, I will probably not be able to answer your call, but I will return your call at the end of the school day.
I hope that you will advise me if at any time your child has a problem; whether it be academic, social, or emotional. Should your child become discouraged or fearful about school, please communicate with me so that we can discover the cause of the problem.
If you have expertise in a specific field, an unusual hobby, or have a different culture that you would like to share, please let me know.
I consider it a great privilege and responsibility to be your child’s teacher this year.
