Message from Dr. Rose
Greetings from Jesse Boyd where we are battling like a bulldog and going for gold this school year while inspiring and equipping our students for success. It is hard to believe that the first semester will be ending on Friday, December 16th. Our students and staff have been working so hard since August and it is showing. We are thrilled that so many of our students are earning their GOLD MEDAL. We are beyond excited at the gains our students are making towards achieving the goals that they've set for themselves. Students and teachers (and parents) alike deserve a much earned vacation. We do urge our students to take time to rest, spend time with family and friends, and enjoy their time away from school; yet, all the while still doing some reading and/or writing during the break.
We wish each of you a happy, safe holiday and a wonderful New Year.
Vacation Camp
Each year, Spartanburg High School's athletic staff provides an opportunity for students during the vacation days. Please see the picture for a camp opportunity for students.
JBE Yearbook
Do you want to keep a memory of the 2016-2017 school year? Each year the JBE PTSO produces an amazing yearbook. The yearbook presale price is good until December 16th. After that date the price does increase. Please see the attached picture for details.
5th grade Strings Concert
In 5th grade, students have the opportunity to choose between chorus, band, or strings. Each of the programs are magnificent and it is fun to watch the musical growth of our students. On Thursday, December 15th at 5:30pm at Spartanburg High School, our 5th grade strings students will have a concert. All are welcomed to attend. Students in 4th grade are extended a special invitation in order to help with making the choice of which to take in 5th grade.

We will have a 1/2 day dismissal on Friday, December 16th. Students will be dismissed at 11:30am. Due to our Holiday Extravaganza assembly, lunch will not be served on Friday. Because of the early dismissal and the Extravaganza students will not be dismissed from the assembly.
