Jaguar Families

Well, it’s been an interesting week and an empty building to say the least. Mr. Tyree and our custodial team have been working really hard to clear the parking lots, sidewalks, etc. There is just so much snow and ice everywhere still.

As you can imagine, we are in the process of rescheduling some events that we missed and those have been added to the below important dates.

National School Counseling Week is February 2-6, please take a minute to thank our amazing school counselors and mental health support specialists: Mrs. Turner, Mrs, Welch, Mrs. Ver Planck, Mrs. Joseph, and Ms. Key.

A reminder that you can come to Greer Elementary School today for lunch from 12:00-1:00 pm. Your Journey student must be with you.

We Notice Nominations will open up next week. This is a nice way to recognize and “notice” any Journey staff member for their great work here at Journey. Starting February 2, please nominate your staff member HERE. There is also a flyer attached with a QR code.

Thank you all for your patience and understanding this week as we have navigated the weather and school closures. I miss all my Jaguars!


If you need anything or have questions, please contact us. Stay safe!


Respectfully,


Ashby Johnson, Principal
