Back to School Kick-Off

Jefferson Elementary is a Title I school. What this means is that we receive Federal funding to create additional learning opportunities for students in both reading and math. To learn more about what this entails and to learn about other helpful back to school information for your family, please watch the informational video below. We have also included a slideshow with live links to some of the information mentioned in the video!

Summer Learning

We were excited to offer various Summer Learning Activities for our students at the end of the 2025-2026 school year. If your child completed any of the activities and filled out the learning calendars, please have them turn them in to their current teacher as soon as possible for a prize!

We are also always trying to improve and plan for this year's Summer Learning. If you participated in the activities this summer, please fill this survey out for us, so we can make changes.

Now is the best time to order a yearbook. The deadline is in March. Once the deadline passes there are only limited yearbooks avaiable. ORDER ONE NOW!
