Dear Parents,

   It's hard to believe that this is my final week here at Waldron Mercy Academy!! My time here has 
been an unforgettable and absolutely amazing experience. I am so fortunate to have met you all, and 
had the privledge of teaching your children since the beginning of the school year. I will make sure 
to visit as often as possible, I will certainly miss this class! Words cannot describe how much I have 
enjoyed this experience and watching your children grow and learn. Thank you all for being so kind 
and generous to me these past few months. I could not have asked for better parents and children to 
help me begin my teaching career. 

     This is also the final week of 2009 at Waldron!  This week will bring much excitement for the 
children. Monday they will get a chance to do some shopping for the people you have put on the 
envelope. Please fill it out and send it to school on Monday. The children will also get a chance to 
have their picture taken with Santa and enjoy a snack.

   On Tuesday they will assemble Gingerbread houses. All parents are invited 
and encouraged to come to this fun event. If you are able to join us, please 
sign in at the front desk and wait in the cafeteria for us. We will be coming 
down at 8:30.

   On Thursday we will have the time honored tradition of going to Mr. 
Stritch's office, cozying up by the fireplace and listen to him read The 
Polar Express. The children are to bring a robe or night clothes that can fit 
over their uniform. Slippers are optional.

   On Friday, our last day, the children will have a snack provided by one of 
the moms. Mrs. Dougherty has been in contact with the parents that 
volunteered at the beginning of the year. We will meet our fifth grade 
buddies and read the grandparent letters. We will also exchange our PollyAnna 
books on Friday. Please make sure these last two items are in school. The due 
date for both was last Friday.

  Again, I am so thankful to all of you for making this one of the best experiences of my life. I hope 
that you and your families have a joyous and blessed Christmas. 

Have a great week,
Molly Cowley
