Headphones
As a reminder, all students need a pair of wired headphones preferrably over the ears and not earbuds for school. It is preferred that headphones have a microphone - it helps students not have to speak so loudly on certain software. Please no bluetooth. Here is a link to an example pair on amazon. This exact pair is not required.Thank you!

Junior Achievement Volunteers Needed!
Are you interested in teaching 30-45 minute lessons to your child and their classmates about opportunities for civic engagement and life skills? Our Junior Achievement program is a great opportunity for you! The JA program is flexible and provides a fun and engaging opportunity for parents (and grandparents) to interact in the classroom throughout the school year.
We need classroom volunteers for all classes K - 5th! If this is something you're interested in, please see the information posted on the SignUp Genius linked below and sign up for your child’s Homeroom if it sounds like a good fit for you!
