Our School-Based OT and SLP teamed up to create a meaningful vocational learning experience for students in our Summer School Functional Adaptive Program! 🖤💛

By serving staff and faculty at JA, students practiced real-world job skills while building confidence, independence, and pride in their work. We love seeing our Jaguars grow through authentic, hands-on opportunities that prepare them for success beyond the classroom.

Both teams showed incredible effort, sportsmanship, and excellence on the court. Keep making Racine proud—way to go, Jaguars! 🐾🏀

We have some exciting news to share with our families! 🥦🍎

Jerstad-Agerholm has been selected to participate in the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program this year! Twice a week, our students will have the opportunity to try a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables, encouraging them to explore new tastes and build healthy habits.

In addition, this program will bring engaging educational activities into our classrooms to help students learn more about the benefits of eating fruits and vegetables.

We are so grateful for this amazing opportunity to support the health and wellness of our Jaguars! 🖤💛

On Wednesday, we had the honor of celebrating our 5th grade students as they were promoted to middle school! This milestone marks an exciting transition for both our students and their families as they take the next step in their journey here at JA.

While our elementary teachers will certainly miss these amazing students, we’re lucky they’ll only be a hallway away! We are so proud of all our Jaguars and can’t wait to welcome you back as middle schoolers in the fall. 🖤💛

Mrs. Conner’s 6th grade students recently completed beautiful Georgia O’Keeffe-inspired oil pastel projects! Students did an outstanding job using color, detail, and creativity to bring their artwork to life.

Their hard work truly shows that we have some amazing artists here at JA. Keep making us proud, Jaguars! 🖤💛

Students in Mrs. Conner’s art classes were challenged to bring their creativity to life by designing their own custom Funko Pop-style characters! Starting with a 3D-printed base figure, students used Model Magic clay and acrylic paint to transform their ideas into unique works of art—whether inspired by themselves, a favorite character, or something entirely original.

We are so proud of the hard work, imagination, and creativity our students demonstrated throughout this project. Amazing job, Jaguars! 🖤💛
