Welcome to Third Grade!!!

Welcome Back Families!

I am looking forward to meeting you all very soon and getting to know your third grader!

I wanted to write a brief letter introducing myself to you.  I have taught elementary students for 19 years, the last l5 of which have been in Walled Lake Schools.  This is my second year teaching at Commerce and I am really excited to get started! I received both my undergraduate and master's degrees from Michigan State University.  GO GREEN!

While at MSU I was lucky enough to meet my husband, Scott, and together we have 2 daughters.  Abby (17) and Sam (15) are in 10th and 12th grade at Milford High School.


As we begin our journey through third grade together, please contact me with questions, concerns, and comments you may have.  I truly believe that we are partners in your child's education and open communication between us will ensure that he/she has a fantastic year full of a lot of learning and a lot of fun! 😃 

The BEST way to reach me is via email at katherineknapp@wlcsd.org. I check my email often and will respond quickly.  If you would like to meet in person or talk on the phone, please leave a message with the office and I will return your call as soon as possible to schedule a time that is convenient for both of us.  

I hope to meet many of your families on Monday, August 27 during our Back to School Meet and Greet!  I will be in our classroom, Room 23, from 3:30 - 4:30pm. Please bring in any school supplies you may have during that time. It will lighten the load for your third grader on Tuesday! In addition, the students will have desks this year, and therefore, most of the supplies that you graciously purchase will belong to your child (not a community supply). Feel free to label anything that you would like.  :-) 

**Please have your child bring a favorite book and a family picture to school on the first day.  We will be sharing both during the first week of school!


Have a wonderful day!

Sincerely,
Kathy Knapp

Hello Families, First, I must apologize!  I always joke that my tech game is weak, and I realized that my last blog update was never share...
