Science
Students are starting a unit on genetics. I have asked them to compare their traits to those of other family members (widows peak, cleft chin, detached earlobes, etc.).
Also, information came home with your child this week about Energy Kits. Please order an Energy Kit and link your order to JFMS; the zip code for the school is 28658. For every 75 kits we order, the school is entered in a drawing for 10,000.00. Please help us meet our goal.
