Jack Anderson Elementary
November 4-8, 2019
JAG-A-THON Success!
A Wonderful Day
As promised, because our students SURPASSED our goal of $50,000.00, Mr. Thurman and I will be spending the day on the roof! November 26th will be an interesting day for the administrators at Jack Anderson Elementary...we are hoping it will be unseasonably warm.
Thank You, Families!
In addition, we will purchase additional Chromebooks so 3rd grade gets closer to one-to-one capability (3rd grade currently has 120 devices). 2nd grade will also receive multiple Chromebooks per class to increase their overall number (each classroom currently has 7 devices). We will purchase interactive technology for K-1 classrooms. Also, the gym will be getting some upgrades.
We will keep you updated with the progress!

Early Dismissal
If you need to sign your child out, please try to be in the office as close to 3:00 as possible. You may have to park on the side of the building closest to Gallatin Road. You may even have to park in the grass. You will notice that both lanes of the car rider line will be full, and you will get stuck if you try to drive around to the front parking lot. You are encouraged to allow plenty of time to make it to the front office to sign your child out before 3:15.

Field Trip Chaperones
1 Lunch Visit Per Week, Goodbyes at the Cafe Door
You will need to sign in with our Lobby Guard in the front office upon arriving. It is helpful to have your license ready. Federal Nutrition Guidelines prohibit bringing outside restaurant or fast food items to share with your child during lunch.
When your child gets to the cafeteria, you may accompany him/her through the cafe line (if needed,) and sit at one of the tables in the cafeteria lobby. There is not enough room in the cafeteria to accommodate all of our students and guests.
After lunch, please say your goodbyes at the cafeteria door. We ask that visitors do not accompany students back to the classroom.
Fridays are SUPER busy days for lunch visitors, so if possible, you may want to try another day. I visited with my child on Wednesday, and there was PLENTY of space. :)
