The Class

Dear Cactus Ranch Family,

Welcome to Fourth Grade!!!  Hopefully, you had a wonderful summer break.   
I’m blessed to have another opportunity to facilitate learning for your 
child.   

I would like to tell you a little about my professional and personal life.  
This is my 18th year of teaching (public school) and my sixth year teaching 
at Cactus Ranch.  While I am a native TEXAN, I’ve only lived in Round Rock 
for six years.  My husband and I have four children (one boy, three girls) 
and just as many grandchildren (one boy, three girls).  I am blessed with a 
large family.  My mom and dad have eight children, twenty-four 
grandchildren, and sixteen great-grandchildren.  We all spend every holiday 
and many weekends together.  I’m the only one of eight children to live away 
from home.  So, when I have summer overnight guests, the number is usually 
in the double-digits.  I love to fish, read, write poetry, watch birds, 
admire nature, and just spend time with my family. The last two years, my 
students and I practiced scrapbooking.  Learning to fly-fish is a skill I 
hope to acquire this year.

I would like to invite you to visit the classroom on Friday, August 21 from 
5:00 – 7:00 p.m.  Your child will have an opportunity to drop off any school 
supplies at that time.  Our classroom is room 209, located upstairs.  This 
will give them a chance to see our new classroom before the first day of 
school. If you aren't able to make it Friday night, I’ll see you at 7:45 a.m. 
on Tuesday, August 25th.  

It is my desire to make fourth grade a memorable year for every student I 
teach.  I'm exciting about the many things your child will bring to this 
class and the skills, experiences, and memories we will all take away from 
here.  


Sincerely,


Etta Moton
