[quote=cmezoughem@gmail.com]I have, and always will, Post to DCUM with my name on it.  :)

DS loved Kindergarten and had Mrs. Balcom.  She was kind and caring, yet firm when she needed to be.  I felt that she "knew" my child and supported his development.  Balcom not only communicated any concerns, but also would be sure to let us know when he had his "great" moments.  It is a strong curriculum and the kids get wonderful experiences in all the disciplines.  In particular we liked Art and Science.  The kids do several performances - Christmas, "NTK Spring Show" and their own class play that they perform in front of the whole school.  When I gave birth to my DD in the fall (and she was a preemie and I was in the ICU), I could not have hoped for a more supportive environment when my son was working through his anxiety (about his baby sister and me).

Mrs. Schuessler was the other teacher and is now teaching 1st grade.  We have her now and she has been fabulous.

Thus the other Kindergarten teacher now is Ms. Haggerty.  While I don't know her in detail (she previously taught Transition and we didn't have her) - she certainly seems to be a wonderful teacher from what I have seen and heard.

As for all this discussion about 3rd grade (which we haven't obviously been in yet), the postings are unfortunate.  In particular one of the two teachers is new - I hardly believe anyone on here could have had an experience with her.

OP - if you have any particular questions - please feel free to send me a message![/quote]
