Welcome to 4th Grade:

My name is Cheryl Bolz and I will be your child's 4th Grade teacher here at Scranton Attendance Center. I want to start by telling you about my family and myself. My husband (Ron) and I have lived in Lyndon and have owned Bolz Insurance, Inc. for the past 28 years. In 1998 I decided to substitute teach and give myself a break from insurance. I fell in love with the school atmosphere and was a sub for three years. In 2001 I enrolled at ESU and graduated Magna cum Laude in December 2004. I have two daughters Cara who loves and plays all sports and Conner who is my fashion coordinator.

To say I am excited about teaching is an understatement. I became a teacher for all the right reasons. I love trying new ideas that will help your child prosper and grow. I believe communication is the most important tool I have in helping your child, and my student, reach their potential. Knowing that communication is important to me I love to hear from parents via email, phone, or a handwritten note. I will keep this web site up-to-date to keep you informed on spelling words, book reports, and class projects.

Next, to communication I love parent participation at all levels. I encourage all parents to help in the class. If you are able to volunteer an hour a week super, an hour a day great, 30 minutes once in a while I will take that and be happy. I love parents that volunteer to have a student read to them, file papers for us, or will bring food to share. Remember I said any time given would be appreciated.

Communication works both ways. If you have a question or comment I have my cell with me always. I try and check for messages on my breaks. I will call return your call as soon as possible so leave a message as to what you need to discuss and a phone number to call. My cell phone is (785) 221-0609. I can't fix what I don't know is broken so please make my number the first you call.

Last, remember I will be with your child roughly seven hours a day. We will have good minutes and trying minutes but I will always treat him/her like I do my own. I will always try and keep the best interest of all my students at the forefront and act accordingly. I believe in starting everyday with a clean slate. I can't wait to meet your child and begin to laugh and learn together.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Bolz
