Frequently Asked Questions

---

Please fill out all of the fields on the submit a letter page. This includes attaching a minimum of two photos. Please see the following three questions for more information.

I created three different examples that you can look at on the submit a letter page. She would love to hear anything you want to share, but here are some ideas:

For the question, "What would you like to say to Mrs. Kehm?"

• Memories you have of her, her classroom, or from your kindergarten year
• The impact she had on you
• Well wishes for retirement

For the question, "Where are you at in life now?"

• What grade you're in/school you're at
• What your major is and what your career plans are
• Where you went to college/what you majored in/what you are doing for a career
• Where you live now
• If you have a partner, children, and/or pets
• What your interests and hobbies are
• Any accomplishments personally and/or professionally

Please take into consideration that she will not read these letters until June of 2025, so please write dates, ages, years in school, etc. accordingly or email me to let me know to reach back out closer to then to get updated information.

For the sake of space, please try to limit both questions in your letter to a combined total of 250 words or less. You can see the word count by typing your letter in a Word document first and then copying and pasting it in the boxes on the submit a letter page.

Your kindergarten yearbook photo and a current photo of you. Solo photos only please (think headshot style). 

Please attach any photos you have of/with Mrs. Kehm too. 

You may also attach a photo of you with your family, sibling(s) that she also taught, and/or doing an activity you love. If there is room, those photos will be included too.

Please submit a different picture of you as close to age 5 or 6 as possible.

You can go to the contact page and attach the photos there. Please indicate that you've already submitted a letter in your message. You may also email the photos to me at lettersformrskehm@gmail.com along with your first and last name.

In case I have follow-up questions for you!

No! She does not know, and I do not want her to find out before she is gifted the book with all of the letters in June of 2025. Please help me keep this a surprise. Thank you!

Yes! Please send this website to your fellow kindergarten classmates, siblings she also taught, etc., as it will help me spread the word. Please also be cognizant of posting about this on social media if your profiles/pages are public and/or if you are friends with her online. Thank you!
