Building Leaders of Tomorrow
From the Principal's pen...
Next week, February 11th-14th is our Book Fair week here at Jack! We also host our annual Lunch with a Loved One. This is a time for you to visit and have lunch with your leader! Please see our schedule above. We hope you can make it! We have a new check in system in our front office so please make sure to scan your license.
The Book Fair also includes opportunities to volunteer in our library. Signups can be found at this link: https://signup.com/go/GwrvnEQ. We will also be hosting our annual Valentine's Day parties on February 14th.
Also a reminder that we will not have school for students on Monday, February 10th for students, this is a Professional Development Day for our teachers.
We still have some goals we are trying to meet, so if you have not joined our wonderful PTA, you can do so by clicking on this link: jackpta.com.
