Welcome to 2nd Grade!
Dear Parents:
My name is Mr. Josh Anderson, and I will be your child’s second-grade teacher this year. I will spend a great deal of time with your child in the upcoming school year. Because of this, I’d like to take this opportunity to tell you a few things about myself--both personally and professionally.
I was born and raised in a small town in Montana. I still love to fish rivers and go backpacking in the summers and head to the mountain to go snowboarding in the winter. I graduated with a degree in Elementary Education and a minor in Psychology from MSU-Billings. I student taught in the Billings Public School District at the fourth-grade level and taught for 3 years at the first-grade level. I now have the opportunity to teach second-grade making this my fourth year at Sandstone Elementary School!
As a parent, you are the most important person in your child’s life, and we need to work together for your child’s benefit. I need your support for the homework assignments, academic goals and classroom discipline plan I have set for the students. I will keep you informed about your child’s progress. With school and home working together, I know your child can have a successful year.
I look forward to meeting you personally at Open House on September 13th. If you have any questions or comments before then please contact me at andersonjs@billingsschool.org or call me before 8:15 or after 2:30 at 281-6899
Sincerely,
Mr. Josh Anderson
