Do you know someone who loves working with children? We are looking for a permanent substitute. This is a full time position with benefits, working only on the days that students are in school. The permanent sub is guaranteed to work every day of the school year. If they are not needed here at LJ, they will be shared with other schools to fill vacancies.

If you are interested or if you know someone interested in this position, check out the BCPS website for the job posting and to see the requirements for this position.

If you have any questions, you can contact Mr. Mullins at daniel.mullins2@bullitt.kyschools.us.

What does it mean when you hear a school say that they are Title 1?

A Title 1 school is a school that receives federal funding to help improve academic achievement for students from low-income families.

How does LJES use their Title 1 money?

The funding has limitations on what you can do with it as there is strict accountability for those dollars. Typically, LJES uses Title 1 money to purchase classified staff who can assist students who are struggling in class. This year is no different; we hired 2 assistants to work with students in class and through pull out, catching up on learning gaps that are present. We also pay for part of our librarian's salary since LJES only qualifies for a part-time librarian. We want students to have access to books and library services all the time and believe a full time librarian will make that possible. Our librarian is also in charge of chromebook inventory and troubleshooting technology issues in the building.

Thank you for your donations to the food drive for holiday assistance through the Turnaround Center. What an incredible response. Your generosity will go back to directly impact families in our community.

The winning classroom, bringing in the most items for the food drive and earning a pizza party from the FRC is Ms. Moore's fourth grade class.
