Jesse Boyd Elementary

Welcome 2016-2017
Olympics
The theme Olympics was selected not only because of the Summer Olympic games currently being held, but because of the lessons our students can learn from Olympic athletes. Those athletes are committed to their goals. They work hard. They don't always come in first, but they always finish the race. They celebrate victories and even defeats. They are caring teammates. They are balanced. Many are creative and confident. They are good communicators. They need a great coach and they need their families cheering them on to finish the race.
We look forward to the number of Gold Medal winners we will have here at JBE during the 2016-2017 school year. Be sure to come to the Coach's Clinic on the 6th to find out more information. We also ask that in any of your social media posts you use our 2016-2017 hashtags #goingforgold and #battlelikeabulldog
There's No Place We'd Rather be than JBE!
