years Mrs. McClure has also served

children to read. She feels teaching reading and planting
those seeds of early literacy is one of the greatest gifts we
can give children. In the classroom her goal is to make all
learning fun and to lay a good skills foundation for other
teachers to build upon.

nurtured daily in all areas of their growth ...social, emotional,
intellectual and spiritual.
