Marching into March
A more fitting title above may be "Flying into March" as this year seemingly continues to speed up! We are continuing our mission in working together to help our students grow as we are heading towards Spring Break and many fun and exciting events. Please see below for March news!
Spread the word! 4K and 5K Registration opens on Tuesday, March 1!
FAMILY DINNER NIGHT - TUESDAY, MARCH 1!
Our next Family Dinner Night is approaching! It will be at one of our local favorites - Taco Dog! You can either dine-in or order and take it home. Please specify that you are ordering/picking up for JBE Spirit Night.
If you choose to order online, here is the link! Order Taco Dog online
We need your help!
Please assist your student's class by having them here on time! We still are aiming at two days in a row of no tardies schoolwide. That is very difficult, and while we completely understand the phrase "expect the unexpected," especially in the mornings, school continues to begin at the same time--7:45--every day. Thank you for assisting us in reaching our goal so that everyone has a successful day of learning each day!
Tuesday, March 15 - Wear Your PJs in support of PS I Love You!
Bring $2 on Tuesday, 3/15 to support our Student Council in raising funds for PS I Love You, which is a shop that assist foster families!
SUPERCELEBRATION
For all of our students who have completed their ACT requirements and have become Superheroes before March 16, we are having a pizza picnic and some outdoor fun to celebrate their accomplishments on Wednesday, March 16!
Student Led Conferences - March 17
We have already reached the time of year when our students are preparing for our Spring Student Led Conferences! Our conferences will take place on Thursday, March 17 from 3-6 pm at JBE. These conferences will be very much like the Fall in that families will be in the rooms at the same time depending on how each teacher prefers to schedule.
For our 4K parents: We will be hosting another Parent Workshop on March 17 at 5:30 pm.
BOOK FAIR! BOOK FAIR! READ ALL ABOUT IT!
OurScholastic Book Fair will be taking place at JBE from March 10-19! As a part of this, JBE will be hosting a Family Book Fair event on Saturday, March 19 from 9 am - 12 pm. While our students will be able to visit the Book Fair during school hours, we are very excited to offer ALL of our families a chance to visit the Book Fair together. We will have activities, read-alouds, food, and, of course, access to our Book Fair!
Speaking of Book Fair...
Our Book Fair committee needs volunteers to assist with the Fair!
