October 17, 2013 To Parents and Families, I am from Charleston, SC.

I will be graduating in the spring with a Bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education. This will be my clinical for my four hundred level class and I am eager to begin working with Mrs. Koone. I hope to do my best to provide your child with a warm and loving environment which will be safe and non-judgmental. I believe that every child is unique and their own way. While I am working with your child, I will make sure they have the opportunity to express themselves and be successful in all they do. If you have any concerns about anything feel free to contact me at any time. Once again, I am excited to bring in this new year with smiling faces and proud to say that Ill be your childs assistant educator! Sincerely, Deandrea Gibbs Cell: (843) 568-6877 Email: deandrea.gibbs@lander.edu

While we try to teach our children all about life, our children teach us what life is all about.
