A Message from Mr. Kuch!

Hello Caregivers!


We want to thank each of you who came out to conferences right before Thanksgiving break. We had a great turnout and it was awesome to be able to gloat on your kids with you. We have seen some tremendous growth with our kids from the fall, and we are excited to see where we end up in the spring! However, it is only December, so we have a long way to go!


Please see the information below for what is going on at Jefferson in the month of December!


As always, if you have any questions, comments or concerns, please reach out to me! We are here to serve you and our students!


Thank you!


JR Kuch

Principal

Virtual Day Learning - Practice Run on Thursday, December 7th

As you may have previously heard, the district is planning to utilize Virtual School Days if there is imminent inclement weather predicted. There is more information about how these days will work linked below, however, Jefferson will be doing a practice run on sending the computers home with students on December 7th. All students are being asked to take their computer home, log on to the internet, complete a Google Classroom assignment that night, and bring the computer back the next day. More specific information is linked below, but there will also be information on how to connect the computers to your network at home, times of classes etc.


We truly hope we do not have to utilize the virtual day plan, however, we want to be prepared if we do.

Please contact your student's teacher with any questions on their specific plan.
