So Much to Celebrate!
Not only are the teachers fabulous, but we have so many students doing great things as well. We had teams represent us in both the state chess tournament, and the OBOB regional tournament. The Jackson chess team took 3rd place in the tournament and the Rocking Readers OBOB team took 4th place. A special shout out to Mrs. Hall, who attended both tournaments to cheer on our kids. Way to represent Jaguars!
Rocking Readers Take 4th Place!
