Principal's Message
Dear JAE Families,
As we approach the end of the first nine weeks, I am thrilled to reflect on the tremendous growth our students have achieved. We are incredibly proud of their progress and look forward to celebrating their hard work.
This week, we have several festive activities planned, including our holiday singalong and classroom parties on December 20, 2024. Please note that due to limited space, the holiday singalong is exclusively for students. However, parents are warmly invited to attend the classroom parties. Your child's teacher will provide specific details regarding the party times.
Additionally, please be aware that December 20th is a half day, with dismissal at 11:40 am.
Wishing you all a wonderful week and a joyous holiday season!
Sincerely,
Tressa Sanders
Principal
