A Note from Nurse Zenna
IF YOUR STUDENT HAS MEDICATION IN THE HEALTH OFFICE:
Be on the lookout for an email regarding medication pickup days
ESY students need to bring their plans and medications to the program.
Also, please remember to book appointments this summer to get Medical Action Plans and medical orders updated for the August 27th start of the next school year.
Enjoy the summer!

Your 2024-25 JES PTA Board wishes all our Koala families a very Happy Last Day!! We thank you for all your support and time given this year to make our events successful and fun!
We would also like to introduce your 2025-26 Board!
This is the last WAAG for me and Christine Schell as we are moving on up to Lincoln Roosevelt. It's been a blast being President! Every event chair, volunteer, room parent, and supporter over the years has truly made a difference for the kids and our community.
