JACCC staff will be participating in offsite team building in the afternoon.
Mrs. Gardner will be hosting a short music program on Thursday, December 19th @ 2:45pm. This is not a full holiday program but will be more of an opportunity for our students to showcase their singing abilities and for our 4th-7th graders to show off what they have been learning during band/orchestra. Parents are welcome to attend.
On December 20th we will have our holiday party day. Students can wear festive pajamas and bring a stuffed animal, pillow/blanket to cozy up with. Students will join together to play games in the morning and then we will watch “Elf” and enjoy some treats for the last couple of hours of the day. December 20th is an early release day.
School will be dismissed at noon and no lunch will be served.
There will be no after school care on this day.
REPEATED NEWS
There have been many days that students do not have proper footwear for gym. When this happens they are not able to fully participate in the planned activities because it causes a safety issue.
We are asking that on Monday’s and PE days that all students wear tennis shoes with non-marking (preferably not black) soled shoes.
Please make sure you are sending a snack or two with your child each day. We have a stash of emergency snacks in the office for students who forget to bring one, however we are noticing many students are coming to the office daily sometimes multiple times for a snack. We are always happy to provide snacks for students who may forget to bring one every now and again, but we do not have the ability to provide multiple snacks a day to students.
We are thrilled to announce the launch of our After-School Sports Enrichment Program, designed to offer students the opportunity to engage in physical activity, develop teamwork skills, and have fun while staying active after school!
This program will provide a range of sports and activities, catering to all interests and skill levels. Whether your child is a seasoned athlete or just looking to try something new, there will be something for everyone. If your child is interested, we invite you to register through this link by December 19th.
Do you have a musical background and play an instrument? Would you like to share your gift of music with our school? We are looking for musicians in our community willing to help with the band/orchestra students by working with small groups or one-on-one on Thursdays from 11-11:40am. Anyone with violin, viola, cello, trumpet, clarinet, saxophone or percussion experience are especially needed. Reach out to Lindsey Gardner at lgardner@jajags.com if you are able to help.
We want our Super Monday families to feel included and to be a part of decisions being made at JACCC. If you are interested to be a member of our amazing PTO (Parent Teacher Organization) please email jacccpto@gmail.com.
