Dear Parents and/or Guardians,                    

My name is Bridget Stewart and I will be your child’s first grade teacher.  I have taught at Prosperity Heights for 12 years and this is my 8th year as a first grade teacher. I have been married for 9 years to my husband Kevin and have two wonderful children, Isabella (5) and Maxwell (2). I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, traveling, reading, and going on walks around the lakes.

         I hope you had a good summer with your family and friends.  I am so excited for the upcoming school year and am looking forward to being your child’s teacher this year. Your child will learn so much in first grade and will be able to read and write this year. Your child will also learn how to tell time, add, subtract, and count money. You will be so proud of all your child’s hard work and success in first grade!

         I will be sending home a bi-weekly newsletter with information about events at school, spelling words to study, special celebrations, and a summary of what your child is learning in all subject areas. In addition, expect your child to bring home daily homework in math and reading. If you need to contact me with any questions or concerns, please call me at school at 651-293-8695 or e-mail me at bridget.stewart@spps.org.

Thank you,

Bridget Stewart
