 Dear Parents/Guardians,                        
 Welcome to room 6!  My name is Sandra Allen and I am going to be your child’s first grade teacher this year!  I am so excited that your child is going to be in my class! First grade is an exciting time as children embark upon new adventures in the world of learning.  I am looking forward to a very exciting and productive year working with your child.  I will strive each day to make learning a fun and enriching process for your child.  However, I need your help in making this year as successful as it can be!  I believe that you and I are a team working together to help your child develop emotionally and academically.  You are the most important person in your child’s life and you are also a teacher in your child’s life.  I know if we work together and communicate, your child will have a very successful year!  Please contact me with any questions or concerns you may have during the year. I can be reached at 846-5686 or email me at sallen@gusd.org. Let's make this year AWESOME!
