Dear Parents,

    Hello, my name is Brett Dabb and I am a senior at Appalachian State University studying elementary education.  This semester I will be doing an internship in Mr. Watson’s classroom at Crossnore Elementary School.  As an intern, I will be aiding your child in his/her classes every Wednesday until November 11th when I become a full-time intern.  During my full-time internship, I will be in the classroom everyday assisting Mr. Watson.  I have had wonderful experiences in the past working at a children's center in Wilmington, North Carolina with students your child's age.  I also have tutored children in the third grade, as well as other elementary level students, in an after school program at Cove Creek Elementary School.

    To tell you a little more about myself, I am twenty-two years old and come from a family of four.  I am originally from Buffalo, New York, then later moved to Allentown, Pennsylvania, where we lived for a few years before packing our bags for a small town near Cape Cod, Massachusetts.  A little over ten years ago, my family moved to Wilmington, North Carolina, where I now consider my home.  My mother used to be a special education teacher at an elementary school.  I learned at a young age to respect and appreciate the profession of teaching.  I love children, and want to supply them with the best education that they can possibly obtain.  I look forward to getting to know your child better, and hopefully getting to know you better as well.

                                                                                            Thank you,
