It takes a village and we are so lucky to have all of you as part of ours.
Lastly, we want to thank Mrs. Hutchison for all the love and support for our school and our PTO throughout the years. It has been an absolute honour working with you. Best of luck as you open Berry Creek next year! You will truly be missed!
It has been an honour being the PTO president for the last 2 years for JES. Jarrell is truly an incredible community and we are blessed to have kids in such an amazing school. I have gotten the privilege to get to know the staff at JES, and I can honestly say they are the best of the best. And to my board members for the ‘25-‘26 school year, you all have been a blast to work with! Thank you for all the laughs and all the hard work!
I hope everyone has a fun and relaxing summer! See you next year!
