A Small Thank You to You!
This year has flown by! I feel so lucky to have gotten to work with this AMAZING group of kids! They are the most loving and eager to learn group of kids I have ever had. I have seen so much growth in each child, not just academically, but socially as well. Thank you so much for your support throughout this year! It has meant so much. I will miss each child!

Dog Tags-Your child's dog tags will be sent home Friday. Please keep these in a safe place for 1st grade. Your child's first grade teacher will be asking for you to bring them back to school at the beginning of the year. They will continue to add to their dog tags each year they are at Jeffries.
Last Day of School- Early Dismissal- NO PRIME TIME!
Balloon Bash Countdown!!!
Can you believe the end of the year is right around the corner? To celebrate our final days together we are going to “pop” our way through the last 11 days. Each afternoon we will pop a balloon that has a “secret” special activity that we will do the following day. I don’t want to spoil the secret part of the activity, but there might be days where the students might need to bring something or wear a certain thing. If this is the case, a special note will be sent home the day before. I hope they are as excited as I am to celebrate the end of school this way.
