Jackson School Family News
Week of September 28th
Happy Sunday Jackson Family!
Happy Sunday Jackson Family,
I hope you all had a great weekend! This week, we is the last week before Fall Break. We are hoping for a great week. There is still time for you to complete the Leader in Me MRA Parent Survey. Please use this link to access the survey. Our goal is to have 250 parents complete this survey so we can have good feedback and plan for continuous improvement at Jackson School, and we only need 12 more to make it happen. Thank you in advance for your support!
Please see the information below for additional upcoming dates and important reminders. Thank you for your continued support of Jackson School where we strive to be better everyday.
Drop Off and Pick Up
Thank you for sticking to the car rider line rules in the morning and in the afternoon. Going through the line provides a safer and faster arrival and dismissal. Please don't park and walk children to the crosswalk or through the parking lot and please don't park and walk children inside the building unless you need to help them drop something off. As a reminder, drop off begins at 7am and pick up begins at 2:25pm. Tardies will begin at 7:30am and we do not sign out after 2pm. Lastly, please be reminded that all transportation changes should be emailed to your child's teacher no later than 12:00pm. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
Tech Fees - $10
During registration, parents sign the KCSD Technology Acceptable Use Policy (AUP). Under the AUP, if you have paid the technology fee, the first accidental damage is covered and a new device will/has been issued to your child. If the fee has not been paid, a new device will not be issued to the student until this technology fee ($10.00) is paid.
If your student incurs any damage to their secondary device it is not covered by the technology fee and an invoice will be sent. Please note that any intentional damage is not covered under the insurance and an invoice will be sent with the appropriate charges for the damage incurred. Please contact our librarian, Mrs. Ribelin, at harlie.ribelin@kcsdschools.net if you have any questions!
Tech fees are required this year. You can send in $10 or you can pay the fees on My School Bucks. Click here for the link to MySchoolBucks or download the app.
Leader in Me Parent MRA Survey
It is time to complete the Leader in Me MRA survey. This survey is an opportunity for members of our school community to provide feedback on a number of meaningful factors. For our students' families and caregivers, this includes feedback on the growth of your student, available supports, and areas for improvement.
Parent Survey
Jackson is a Leader in Me School
Jackson is a Leader in Me school where we build leadership and life skills, and create a positive school culture where every child can discover and develop their full potential. We believe every child is a leader in their own way. Leader in Me teaches students how to take responsibility, set goals, manage their time, work well with others, and celebrate each other’s differences. It helps kids grow not just academically, but socially and emotionally too. Students are introduced to the 7 Habits throughout the school year.
We encourage you to:
- Use the 7 Habits at home.
- Talk with your child about their goals.
- Celebrate their leadership growth.
- Attend Leader in Me events at school.
Together, we can build confident, responsible, and caring leaders—starting now!
