Jamison Helping Hands
A very warm thank you to everyone who helped to make the holidays better for some local Jamison families. Your donation of gift cards, toys, books, and clothing made the families very happy! I wish you could all see the grateful and appreciative faces of the parents when I deliver the gifts to them.
Again, thank you for all of your efforts in making the holidays so special for others!
TEAM N-R-G Challenge
Come join the fun…The challenge for January & February is to Get Going. Please see the new Team N-R-G challenge on the Jamison Web page www.cbsd.org/jamison (under fitness challenge). The winter can be a difficult time to stay active but the newsletter will provide you with plenty of ideas. Have some family fun with these activities.
Our Family Fitness Challenge is to share your ideas to Get Moving as a family during the winter. Please share your photos and write-ups with us….due to Mrs. Canales at mcanales@cbsd.org by 1/31/14. The next display case will be unveiled in early February!
Weather Information
Dear families,
With the winter weather upon us, I wanted to direct you to district information on school closings, late arrivals, and early dismissals. Click here for that district information.
It is also important to remember that students should come dressed appropriately for recess even during the winter. Having warm clothing will certainly help students enjoy their time on those days that they have outside recess.
Sincerely,
Mr. Croyle

Then, three students from grades K-3 and three students from grades 4-6 are randomly drawn at our monthly assembly and are given Jet T-Shirts.
