Welcome
to Mrs. Kim’s First Grade Class
Dear Family
member(s) and guardians(s),
Welcome to
the 2015 -2016 inaugural school year at Archway Lincoln
Classical Academy! I hope that each of you had a wonderful
summer! With the arrival of the first
day of school, I am pleased to have this opportunity to introduce myself to
you. My name is Cindy
Kim and I will be the
lead teacher for our first grade classroom, along with our teaching assistant
Ms. Rebecca Six. I
received a bachelor’s degree in Family and Human Development at Arizona State
University, and completed a master’s degree in Elementary Education at
University of Missouri – St. Louis. Although it is my first year at Lincoln, I
have been in the Great Hearts network for the last four years, teaching first
grade at Archway Trivium and Archway Arete.
Prior to teaching in the Great Hearts network, I spent two years in St.
Louis teaching Kindergarten. I am extremely excited to join Archway Lincoln,
and continue to teach in the classroom that values learning. The wonderfully
eager and curious students, the warm and
motivated faculty, an amazingly supportive group of parents, and of course the curriculum
itself which challenges our students to new levels and open up our classroom to
riveting discussions are aspects which I appreciate greatly about an Archway
School.
We are also very fortunate to have
Ms. Rebecca Six as our second teacher in the classroom. She is very thrilled
and excited to join Archway Lincoln. Ms. Six grew up in Pennsylvania with eight
siblings. Her mother, who has a liberal arts degree, homeschooled Ms. Six and
all of her siblings from kindergarten through high school. Last May, Ms. Six
graduated from Thomas Aquinas College in California with a liberal arts degree.
Through her liberal arts education, Ms. Six gained a love of learning that
inspired her to become a teachers, so that she could share that love with
others.
As
I prepare and wait in anticipation to greet and meet the incoming scholars of
first grade, I am thrilled to be able to witness firsthand how these young
students will not only grow in their knowledge of great minds but also find
their ways to becoming great hearted scholars. I have set high expectations for your child and I will
do my best to provide them with an exciting and challenging learning
experience. If at any point of the year, you have any questions or concerns,
please feel free to email me at hkim@archwaylincoln.org
Thank you in advance for all of your
support and I
look forward to getting to know you and working with you throughout this school
year!
Sincerely,
Cindy
Kim
