Welcome back!!

Message from Mrs. Wolf
Welcome back to our amazing students, families, and our dedicated Jacobson Education Team!
We are proud of our students and staff for their hard work & focus in quarter one and now gain speed as we head into quarter two. I remind our students and staff at the beginning of every quarter two- this is a “meat and potato quarter.” We have established solid classroom learning communities and learning routines - now we put the pedal to the metal to focus on essential learning standards and apply our learning. Prepare yourself by ensuring students are at school every day, come on time and are ready to work hard and have fun!
As a community school we are proud of our accomplishments - we are an academic-focused school who receives an “A” on student achievement each year. Our AZM2 state test scores from this past school year, 20.21, revealed that our students are in the top 10 amongst other CUSD elementary schools in the content area of mathematics, and in the top 5 amongst other CUSD elementary schools in the content area of Reading and Writing. Our student growth, in both content areas, when compared to the 2019 AZM2 state test, show that Jacobson students continue to be among the top performers in CUSD.
We are a collective team and remind all our students and families and staff that Jacobson’s four growth essentials are:
- Believing “I Can”
- Using Good Manners
- Keeping Themselves and Others Safe
- Owning Their Choices
And this quarter we are excited to bring back fantastic flyer assemblies! Our students will be honored by staff members, highlighting growth essentials - and most important, what makes each of our JETS so special! Be on the lookout for your invitation soon! Assemblies will be the last two days of each month, during quarters two and three this year! Our amazing JETS have accomplished so much and it’s important we recognize them! JETS FLY with PRIDE!.
Welcome back to Quarter two!
Dear Jacobson Families,
Welcome back to an exciting Quarter 2! We are kicking off the first week with our Fall Bookfair. Our bookfair will from October 15th to October 22nd. Your child will come home with a Wishlist and a bookfair sample booklet. You can also visit the Bookfair website to see a larger book selection and/or purchase your books online (https://efairs.follettbookfairs.com). This will make your child's bookfair experience much easier as they only have 30 minutes to shop! Because we are still unable to manage a Lunch on the Lawn, we will open the bookfair to parents of specific grade levels each morning.
Superhero Dress Up Day- Friday October 15th we will kick off the bookfair with dress up day! Your child can dress up as any superhero character, wear a superhero t-shirt, a cape, the sky is the limit. Each grade level will have a dress up winner!!!
Parent Shopping- On your child's specific grade level morning we ask that you park in one of the parking lots and enter through the East gate between the office and the library and exit through the West gate between the library and the Kindergarten playground. Be on the lookout for the signs! Gates will be open from 7:15am-8:05 each morning. You will find the schedule attached for your child's class bookfair shopping time as well as the grade level specific morning parent shopping time.
Teacher Wishlist-Each teacher was given the opportunity to create an online wish list of books they would love for their classroom. You can order books online and they will be delivered to their room, or you can look for them at the bookfair.
