March is National Nutrition Month!
Happy National School Breakfast Week! This year's theme is Surf's Up! Let's kick off the week with a quiz about school breakfast. See what you know, what you may not know, and more about the most important meal of the day.
Breakfast fuels learning! Students who eat school breakfast tend to perform higher in reading and math, score higher on tests, concentrate better in class, and more!

Leader in Me: Habit 6
Our next Leader in Me focus is Habit 6: Synergize. Our next awards assembly on March 21st we will recognize students who synergize!
People who synergize understand that everyone has unique talents and that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. They also work together to arrive at new and better alternatives.
Kid Language
Together Is Better: I value other people’s strengths and learn from them. I get along well with others, even people who are different than me. I work well in groups. I seek out other people’s ideas to solve problems because I know that by teaming with others we can create better solutions than anyone of us can alone. I am humble.
Ways to practice Synergize:
- Write down three things that you’re really good at. Then write down three things that someone else you know is good at.
- Watch your favorite sports team play a game. Pay extra attention to how all of the players work together as a team.
- This summer put up a lemonade stand with your friends. One person can create a poster, one can make the lemonade, and one can set up the table and bring the cups and ice. Have fun!
ENRICHMENT MARCH 29TH

KOALAPALOOZAS AND FUND A NEED
Our vision for Koalapaloozas was to build community within our Jerabek families while raising money for our students' education. We still have room for more people in all 6 of our ‘Paloozas. Some are for kids and some are for adults. These are creative and fun experiences hosted (and donated) by Jerabek parents and even a Jerabek student! We’d love to see these SELL OUT!

Fund A Need: Interactive On Campus Field Trips & STEAM Lab Equipment
WHY? We believe real life, hands-on experiences drive learning.
We have left the Fund A Need open until Monday, March 18. On Saturday night, we shared that our hope is to bring hands-on field trips to the campus! Since bus limitations have reduced the amount of field trips our students can attend every year, we’d like to give them memorable learning experiences on campus. This is even better than assemblies, which we all loved in elementary school. We would also like to replace equipment in the STEAM lab that has been broken over time, like iPads and Ozobots. Thank you to those that have already donated!
