A message to the XC runners (as well as the coaches & parents): Your school family/community are so proud & want to CONGRATULATE each of you on a wonderful season...and best of luck to those that are traveling to State! #WarriorProud

Wow, we asked and you all sure did deliver! Thank you so much! We have not been notified of any issues this week at the Renaissance Center. Thank you for partnering with us on this matter. #ItTakesaVillage

Also, if your child waits for you in this area, they need to know they are not to enter the building - please try to be prompt in picking them up. They also do not need to sit on the steps leading into the entranceway. This can create tripping hazards for the Seniors trying to enter/exit the building. Thank you for your support in this matter. We will be reminding students that are in this area after school about the expectations.

The PTO is providing breakfast for our wonderful staff at John Sevier on September 28. Please help donate by clicking on the link below.

Thank you for all your support, John Sevier PTO

Reminder: please be mindful of our neighbors on Wateree, Oak, and Yadkin Streets during morning drop off and afternoon pickup. We want to ensure that our carlines do not block our neighbor's driveways.

Also, the air conditioner will remain on for a while, so the classrooms may seem cool for some. Remind your child to bring a light jacket/hoodie to keep in their backpack, as needed. Again, we try to utilize our jacket/hoodie supply for true needs.

On the alternate Wednesday's, Wyldlife will be held in the library. Please join us for that as well.

JSMS PTA transitioned to a PTO at the end of last school year. What does that even mean? It means that membership is FREE now! It also means that we get to keep 100% of all our donations and are not required to send any funds to the national organization. We are working hard to finalize all the transition details. Be on the lookout in the next Weekly Warrior for more membership information.

Need some swag? We have created an online shop where you can order at your convenience. We outsourced a local vendor for our spirit shop this year and we couldn't be happier. Go check it out! It's more than just tees. We have our very own Stanley Dupe! Visit the link below to order!
