Dear JES family and friends,
Many thanks to
our PTO for “cooking up” a special week of recognition for us last week! We
truly feel appreciated! The sweet notes, tasty treats, cookbooks with delicious family recipes,
the Friday luncheon and the apron…WOW you out did yourselves! Thank you to all of our
parents for your continued support throughout the year.
The “Drive for a SMILE” toothbrush drive was
a success! We exceeded our goal of collecting 600 toothbrushes! Thank you to
everyone who contributed whether it was by donating a toothbrush or counting
them at the end – together we make a difference especially for those children who
will receive a toothbrush to promote dental health through Cook Childrens’
Hospital. A special thanks to our nurse Susan Bonczyk for arranging to get the
toothbrushes delivered to the hospital. For meeting our goal, the students and
staff were rewarded with sugarless bubblegum (or an alternative) and permission
to chew it during school!
HONESTY is the character value for the month of
March. The definition is choosing to be truthful in whatever you say
or do. Watch out George Washington and Abe Lincoln! After this month, our
school will be filled with children who will go down in history for their
inability to tell a lie, because we are dedicating the whole month of March to
the value of HONESTY.
Kindergarten Preview at JES - April the 18th
from 5-6:15. This is an opportunity for prospective kindergartners to visit the
Johnson campus. If you have a child who will be five years old by September 1st,
2013, plan on visiting this fun event. Be sure and tell your neighbors and
friends about our Preview, too!
Kindest
regards,
Counselor
