Welcome!


Dear Parents,

My name is Jenny Cicha and I am looking forward to working with you and your child this year. I’d like to take this opportunity to tell you a little bit about myself.

I have been teaching since 1993 when I graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Stout with a degree in Early Childhood Education. I grew up in Spooner, Wisconsin, but have enjoyed living in Hudson since 2000. I enjoy gardening, rubber stamping, scrap booking, fishing and traveling. My travels so far have taken me to places as interesting and exotic as Singapore, India and Kenya.

I am really excited to be with the team at Trinity School! I feel truly blessed to be teaching kindergarten here. I hope to provide your child with the best first year of school experience possible! There will be many opportunities to become involved with your child’s learning this year. Together we can make this a great start to your child’s education! I look forward to getting to know you and your family.

God Bless,
Mrs. Cicha

Homerun Reading(Required)

Kindergarten students need to read or be read to 20 minutes per day.
Use the Reading Log that is sent home in the Family Folders at the beginning of each month to keep track of minutes read.  Turn in your Reading Logs the first school day of each new month. Reading Logs turned in after that will count for your student's grade, but NOT toward the incentive points. 


Practice your Monthly Bible Verse!
