Hello Eagle Family!
Hey there! I hope you and your family had a wonderful Fall Break. It is an exciting season at JSES.
- We are excited to announce that the Kentucky Department of Education recognized our Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) system as a SILVER status school! 🎉PBIS Coach, Taylor Ruth, accepted this honor at Monday night's Board meeting, where we were congratulated for our efforts toward improving climate and culture through the implementation of PBIS strategies.
- Our PTA Paragon Fundraiser is going on NOW! This is an easy way we can raise LOTS of funding for our school. PTA has many goals and plans for the year. Please support our school by participating in this fundraiser.
- We are hosting a Trunk or Treat on Halloween and would love for you and/or your business to be a part of it. Please message the Jesse Stuart Elementary PTA on Parent Square or Facebook to sign up! You won't want to miss it!🎃
- Remember "Book-It" Reading program through Pizza Hut? Our librarian, Mrs. Durbin, has brought it back! Encourage your child to participate.
Congrats to our JSES 22-23 Academic Team, led by Mrs. Dickerson & Ms. Young!
