Our Learning Community...
Last week was filled with family connections and we want to extend our sincerest gratitude to each and every one of you who attended the Cali-Q Western BBQ, the Leader in Me Family Workshop, and/or the PTA Skate Nite. Your participation and enthusiasm truly made the events more memorable. From the delicious aromas of grilled goodies to the lively conversations in classrooms, it was heartening to see families come together to engage with our learning community. Events like these not only foster stronger bonds among us but also provide valuable opportunities for growth and learning.
We have another exciting week on the horizon, Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week! This is our chance to show our incredible educators and staff just how much they mean to us. Jones is so fortunate to have so many team members who share their dedication, passion, and unwavering commitment to nurturing the minds and hearts of our students on a daily basis! We love you all!
