A Message from the Principal
Dear JSC Community,
As we come to the end of another school year, we want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude to each and every one of you for the continuous support, dedication, and partnership throughout the year. We have witnessed incredible growth, resilience, and achievements in our students this year, and it is all thanks to the collaborative efforts of our wonderful families, teachers, and staff members.
As we bid farewell to another school year, we want to wish you all a restful and rejuvenating summer break. May this time be filled with joy, laughter, cherished moments with your loved ones, and maybe even a Phillies game or two (for any Phillies fans out there)!
We look forward to welcoming you back for the upcoming school year with excitement and anticipation!
As always, thank you for making JSC the place to be! Roll Tide!
Your partner in education,
Ms. Kerri Lubinsky
