I would appreciate you contacting me at your earliest convenience. This summer I am taking six semester hours to update my teacher's license. Currently, I am searching the educational field for jobs where I can use my talents in teaching early childcare through the third grade. My phone number is757-848-3297.
Thank you for your assistance.
Sincerely,
Martha Austin

Everyone is so nice and professional at the school. My son goes there part-time, and once the new baby is born… he/she will go there too.
