I just want to say to you Mrs. Newman...
You are an amazing educator that creatively worked with my child's learning style and needs. You established an amazing bond with Lily and all your students. I've never seen a teacher take such ownership of her students and pride in their accomplishments. I saw tears in your eyes at their graduation. Thank you for your follow through each year and for making the time to go to their graduation:) -Gema S. Argyle, TX |
Each year, at the beginning of a new school year my kids and I wait, in
anticipation, to see who their teachers will be. Well we were thrilled to find that we had Jessica Cozens as my son's 3rd grade teacher. Jessica is a loyal and dedicated teacher who not only taught my son with passion, she always loved on him too. My son loved his 3rd grade year, he loved being at school and loved learning. Thank you Jessica, it was a blessing to have you as a teacher, and we should have more teachers like you in this world. -Tisha W. Argyle, TX |
For our family ... Foundational excellence ... Mrs. Cozens is exactly what you need for building confidence in your kids as they learn the from-the-ground-up building blocks for higher learning from a passionate educator with a true heart for our children and their life paths.
