Welcome to the school year at James T. Jones Elementary School. My name is Susan Weyers and I am very excited to be your child's third grade teacher this school year! I live in Gladstone, MI, with my husband Ken and our dog, Sam. Our 3 sons, Tom, Matt, and Peter have all graduated from the Gladstone School District, and are in the process of making their way in the world.
I have taught third grade for 5 years, four in Gladstone and one in Wausau, Wisconsin. I have also been a substitute teacher at the elementary level in Gladstone for several years. I am looking forward to working closely with the other third grade teachers at Jones School so that together, as a team, we can give your child the best opportunities possible at the third grade level.
I feel that Communication between home and school is very important, and Responsibility is one of the most valuable traits that you and I must work together to teach your child. Therefore, this year we will be using the R.A.I.N.B.O.W. folder to help your child stay organized. R.A.I.N.B.O.W. stands for Responsibility, Achievement, Information, Neatness, and Better Organization Wins! This is a daily folder that will be used ALL school year...every day!! You will want to check your child's folder for daily messages and homework that needs to be completed. Then each day you will want to make sure that your child comes prepared to school with their R.A.I.N.B.O.W. folder and other necessities.
Please take time to read the Back-to-School information that I will be sending home with your student. If you have any questions or concerns, now or during the year, please feel free to stop by or call. You are welcome in our classroom at any time.
