The Jones Journal

Dear Jones Elementary,

Welcome to February, Superstars!
This month is full of new adventures and opportunities to grow. As we dive into February, let’s focus on building important life skills that will help us every day. Let’s practice having a positive attitude—no matter what challenges come our way, we can face them with a smile! We’ll also work on showing empathy, by understanding and caring for each other’s feelings. And when things get tough, we’ll use our coping skills to stay calm and find ways to solve problems. Together, we’ll make February an amazing month of kindness, learning, and growth!

Warmly,

Anyahlyn Dillon
