Winnie the Pooh, Kids
We had a wonderful time on Thursday through Saturday at JBE last week. Our students in the musical production showed once again just how talented they all are in and out of the classroom. The lessons learned from Winnie the Pooh about communication and friendship can certainly be ones the students will take with them long after their days of school at JBE are over. Don't forget that a DVD of the productions and a CD of pictures by Walker Photogrpahy are on sale until March 18th. Please reserve your copy by returning the order form to Mrs. Fischer by March 18th.
Walk to School Day
Wednesday, March 9th is Walk to School Day. Please join us for a 7:15 am start time at Jordan Oil. There will be some families that will begin at 7am from Lamb of God church on Fernwood Glendale.
Spring Pictures
Also on Wednesday, we will have spring pictures. Be sure your child comes to school with their best smile on Wednesday.
Scholastic Book Fair
Next week we will have our annual book fair in our media center. We are super excited and can't wait to open the boxes to see what fun things Scholastic will be bringing to us this year. We are still needing parent volunteers especially for our Goodies for Grandparent event on March 17th. The link to sign up for volunteering at Book Fair can be found by clicking here
St. Baldrick's Event
Every 3 minutes a child is diagnosed with cancer. St. Baldrick's is a wonderful organization that raises money for childhood cancer research. We are hosting an event here at JBE on March 26th. This event will be held on our playground. Ikes will be on hand with food. All will be entertained by head shaving and hair cutting. If you are interested in participating in this event, please email John Harrill by clicking here
Hillbrook Baseball Fundraiser
Many of our students play Hillbrook baseball each year. They are having a fundraiser on Tuesday, March 15th at Taco Dog. Be sure to swing by Taco Dog in the Hillcrest Shopping center for lunch or supper on the 15th and be sure to mention Hillbrook baseball. A percentage of what you spend will go right back to the Hillbrook baseball league.
