Rebecca Minor
Elementary, Lilburn, Georgia

Hello
group!
My name is Kara York and I am a first grade teacher at Rebecca Minor
Elementary in Lilburn, Georgia. Lilburn is about 30 miles northeast of
downtown Atlanta in Gwinnett County. Minor Elementary is labeled a Title
I school, and we just recently acquired the "Title I School with
Distinction" title for making AYP for the past 3 years. We have about
1800 kids at Minor, and more coming in every day. The city that we are
in is constantly growing, but we are located in the middle of a quiet
subdivision. There is a lot of growth around us which is why our
enrollment increases so much every year. I am a first year teacher,
having recently graduated from Kennesaw State University in May. I have
17 kids that are very, very diverse! I have students from Cambodia,
China, South America, and the Turks and Caicos.
Can't wait to start counting teeth! Kara York

Hello All!
We have had a not so busy month for losing our teeth.......none were
lost! The funny thing is, Lovelle lost a tooth yesterday, so we're
starting the month of March off strong!!! When we lose a tooth, we get
to write our name on the graph on our calendar board, and then we get to
wear a really cool necklace we put our tooth in.
We read the book Dr. De Soto and then compared how our dentist is like
the dentist in the book. We also drew our pictures of what we thought
the Tooth Fairy looked like, some were very creative!
Happy Wiggling! Mrs. York's First Grade Class

We have
lost 4 teeth this month, with many more to come!!! A lot of the kids are
wiggling their teeth a lot, so they are really hoping more fall out
after Spring Break. 2 were girls and 2 were boys. Have a great Spring
Break (for those of you on break next week)!!!
