Dear South Families,

Hello! My name is Anthony DeGennaro, and I will be teaching your son/daughter this school year. I had the pleasure of meeting many of you last year. To those of you whom I have not yet met, I am very excited to get to know you and your son/daughter as the school year progresses!

You will be receiving a letter at some point soon from your son/daughter’s regular education teacher. That letter will contain any classroom supplies your son/daughter will need. In addition to those supplies, I would greatly appreciate it if you could ensure that your son/daughter comes prepared with the following items as well:

1. Numerous sharpened #2 pencils with erasers for them to keep in my classroom

2. **Optional: Individual personal packets of tissues for your son/daughter to use or, if you are able to, a few boxes of tissues for our classroom to use are always extremely helpful!

If I can be of any help, please don't hesitate to contact me at any time. My e-mail address is adegennaro@pvsd.org, and my phone number is 610-489-2991, ext. 4615. It is my belief that students learn most effectively when parents and teachers work together as a team, and so I would like to stay in communication with you. Once again, I look forward very much to working with your son/daughter. Thank you so much, and have a great day!

Sincerely,

Anthony DeGennaro
