At Jefferson, we value and honor the rich diversity of all cultures and heritages represented within our community. Throughout the year, we celebrate and embrace this diversity, but during Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15 – October 15), we bring special attention to the history, achievements, and contributions of Hispanic and Latino cultures. Please share stories with your child from our Hispanic Heritage Digital Library (see below).
A heartfelt thank you to all the families who attended our Family Teaching and Learning Night! We hope you left with a better understanding of the curriculum for the year and classroom procedures. We also want to extend our gratitude to those who participated in the PTO Family Sports Night—everyone had a fantastic time! Be sure to check out the pictures below. If you haven’t yet become a PTO member, visit the PTO Pen section for more information.
Students have now completed their first MAP benchmark assessments. After setting goals for the next benchmark, reports will be sent. You can expect to receive them in the next couple of weeks.
As many of you know, I’m a strong advocate for good attendance because it is the foundation of providing a quality education. At the Family Teaching and Learning Night, families pledged to ensure their children attend school every day. For those who couldn’t make it, a pledge will be sent home. Please take a moment to review it, sign it with your student, and return it to school. These pledges will be displayed in the lunchroom as a reminder of our commitment to education.
Thank you for your continued support!
Sincerely,
Principal Thill
We Are Jefferson...Watch Us Achieve!!!
