Welcome to Coolidge Elementary. Thank you for visiting my webpage.  Let me introduce myself:)

My name is Jennifer Brees and I have been teaching for Livonia Public Schools for 16 years.  I have taught Kindergarten, First, Second, and Third Grades.  

I live in Livonia and I have 3 children.  Kylee is 23, Grace is 14, and Andrew is 12 years old.  Grace and Andrew currently attend Holmes Middle School and Stevenson High School.  Kylee graduated from Stevenson highschool and is now a registered nurse at Beaumont Hospital in Dearborn. 

Third grade is an exciting time as children come upon new adventures in  learning. This is a year of important transitions, as well as gaining new skills. I hope to make your child’s learning experience a fun and exciting one, and I hope to instill a love of learning.  So many things happen in Third Grade! In fact, this year will be full of important transitions. It is tremendously important to keep in mind that we all build on small successes. Each child will progress at his/her own rate, acquiring skills as he/she is developmentally ready. Maintaining each child’s self-esteem and building a secure foundation for future growth will always remain a priority in our third grade. 

Again, I look forward to teaching your child and working with you to help your child achieve their fullest potential. Please don’t hesitate to contact me.
