🍉 Watermelon Day!

JES Kindergarteners have been learning all about the life cycle of a watermelon! They read stories, researched fun facts, sequenced the stages of the watermelon life cycle, and completed hands-on investigations.

They wrapped up learning with the best part—some delicious watermelon and fresh watermelon juice!

JES...AMAZING! Hats off to our students, teachers, parents, title team and everyone who supports our students!

What an awesome village we have at JES! 💙🤍

Every elementary improved. 170 of 183 students proficient. 92.9% districtwide across four elementary schools.

A 92.9% IREAD-3 proficiency rate doesn't happen in third grade alone.

It begins at home with families reading aloud. It grows in preschool-second grade with those first foundational skills, and it continues through years of great teaching, intervention, practice, encouragement, and hard work. It takes dedication to strong systems and research-based instruction!

To our families, teachers, interventionists, tutors, administration, instructional aides, support staff, and especially our students: THANK YOU! Let's keep up the great work and see that % continue to increase!

Our kindergarten students have had a BUSY first three days of school learning the ins and outs!

These first few days have been all about getting to know new friends, learning rules and expectations, and practicing procedures… And of course NAMES! Students learned new friends’ names and practiced recognizing and writing their own names.

Somehow, in between ALL of that learning, they still found plenty of time to read stories, dance, sing songs, play, laugh, and have FUN!

Kindergarten is a whole lot of learning how to “do school”—and these students have worked SO hard this week!
