Hello Families!<br />
<br />
Welcome back to school! I hope that everyone had a wonderful summer. My name is
Mrs Karas, and I am very happy and excited to be teaching fourth grade this
year. For those of you who are new to J.I.Q., I welcome you, and I look forward
to meeting you. For those of you returning to J.I.Q., welcome back! I think
this will be a fabulous year! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
My goal is to help students to become active in
their education so they enjoy learning new ideas and concepts that they can
take with them throughout their educational career. I hope to give my
students the skills and knowledge necessary for their successful future, as
well as instilling an eagerness and enthusiasm to know more and to question
why. I want them all to believe that there isn’t anything they can’t do!<br />
