Exciting Beginning!

As the new school year gets underway I would like to begin by introducing myself . My name is Jennifer McCall and I will be student teaching in your child's third grade classroom. I am very excited to be here at Locust Elementary! I will be in the classroom working with Mrs. Carpenter until December. I would like to tell you a little bit about myself. I am currently a senior at Pfeiffer University. I am married and have two beautiful children. My son is eight years old and in third grade. I also have a daughter who is six years old and in the first grade.

I am really enjoying the opportunity I have been given to be in the classroom with your child, and Mrs. Carpenter. The students are so loving, smart, and respectful. I know as a parent you all must be extremely proud of your child the same way I am of mine.Over the next several months I will be teaching and interacting with your child. I will be video taping a few of my lessons for educational purposes only. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to contact me at Locust, or you can contact Mrs. Carpenter. I know this is going to be a great learning experience for myself as well as your child.
