Welcome to 3rd Grade. I am very excited to start another great  year of school. My hope is that this site will be useful to you each time you visit. You will find all of  our plans for the week, homework assignments, and important class and school information on the various pages. Most information will be updated each week, but some information such as homework or daily assignments may be updated on a daily basis so please be sure check often. Feel free to email me with any questions you may have. I look forward to working with you and your student this year.

Peace, Smiles, and Sunshine,

Jamie Burnett
