WELCOME TO 3RD GRADE !

Hi, I'm Mrs. Condon and I teach 3rd grade and K - 6 Music. I will use this site to keep parents and students updated about daily and upcoming events and happenings at Holy Trinity, especially here in 3rd grade; even keeping you informed of their daily assignments. I'm looking forward to working with you and your child this year. With God's grace and guidance this shall be a wonderful and exciting year. Remember to always keep our students in your prayers.

If you ever need to contact me with any questions or concerns that you may have please leave me a message @ (320) 485-2182 ext. 2159 or by email at kcondon@tds.net and I will get back to you ASAP. Remember that communication is the key to your child's success here at Holy Trinity. I will do my best to keep you informed and up-to-date.

Parents: 

Hope you all enjoyed a fantastic long weekend!

Book orders were sent home today. Please make checks out to SCHOLASTIC. They are due by Monday. Any questions plese let me know.

Weather changes a lot in here, it'll be a good choice to send an HT sweater/sweatshirt :o)
