       Swinging Into a New Year!

       Hello, my name is Mrs. Ligi. I am a fourth grade teacher at Fletcher W. Judson Elementary School. I began teaching Grade 4 in 1985 at Baldwin School in Watertown.  I help my students become responsible and organized learners. I am an advisor to Judson's Student Council which initiates activities for our school, our town, and even our country. I am also Judson School's coordinator for the Math-A-Thon which helps St. Jude Children's Hospital in Tennessee.

      I'm looking forward to a "pawsome" year of living our Judson pledges for Respect, Responsibility, and Ready. 

 

  *Character Counts Pledge*

              I am Ready  

   I promise that each and every day 

I’ll show my good character at work and at

play. 

             

              I am Respectful 

   I promise to do what is right and fair 

   Even when nobody else is there. 

             

             I am Responsible 

I’ll improve my character, and soon you will see 

I’ve grown up to be the best person I can be!
