EJMS Jaguar Weekly Nov. 5 - 7
Keeping our Jaguar Community Connected
Journey Through the Jungle with Principal Pickerill
We hope everyone had a good, safe weekend with trick or treating. Now that we are past Halloween and the time change, and into the month of November we have a three day week with students. Make sure you take a look at the upcoming dates because we have several opportunities for students coming up in the next couple of weeks.
Fall Play - Alice in Wonderland, November 13-15
Please come out to support our talented EJMS students as they take Alice in Wonderland: Urban Edition, to the stage! Set in Central Park in New York City, Alice finds herself lost from her sister in the subway, and must use the help of the queen of the park, the rabbit, rat, duchess, grinning cat, and many other interesting characters to get back to her sister. This funny spin on the Lewis Carroll classic is sure to have you laughing and grinning. Use the qr code below to purchase tickets online. Tickets will also be sold at the door- cash only.

From our Youth Services Center
This week I’m going to be talking about Holiday Assistance and Thanksgiving Baskets. If you will be affected by the government shutdown and SNAP benefits being temporarily suspended, I can help. I am also attaching the application for Holiday Assistance here https://forms.gle/Nu8NshfvVKMZkoi38.
If you will need assistance with Thanksgiving, please fill out this form and you will be put on my list https://forms.gle/8EGmawMJGk8WhvQY8.
It is important to note that I cannot receive any applications after November 14th. It is simply too difficult to provide resources after that date.
If you are interested in learning more about what the Youth Service Center does, please contact me about attending my November 5th meeting. We’d love to have you join us!
