Ms. Reparto, Kindergarten Teacher, PS 101 The Verrazano

My daughter Katelin comes home to me everyday with something knew she learned. She would learn it no matter what school, no matter what teacher. The difference is Katelin comes home to me with a piece of her teacher with her. Ms.Reparto has something about her that has Katelin wanting to be just like her. Katelin, imitates her style of teaching and I find her acting out Ms.Reparto's lessons on her dolls. Katelin amazes me any chance she can from all she soaks up in school. And believe me it takes intrigue and pizzazz to stimulate her. I was very nervous about a new school, with so many classrooms and so many people, but Ms.Reparto has done her part and more, making it a wonderful place to learn.
