Dear JES families and friends,
WELCOME New and Returning DRAGONS!

There are so many fun activities going on in our classrooms as our students return to school. We are happy to welcome your children whether they are returning students or brand new Dragons.  I hope that you have had a wonderful summer! We are back in full swing here at Johnson!

 Core Essentials - Thank you PTO!

Our character trait for August is WISDOM defined as finding out what to do and doing it. Our JES PTO is sponsoring our Core Essentials program again this year. If you are interested in more information about our character education program go to www.CoreEssentialsValue.com .  Our September character trait is INITIATIVE – Seeing what needs to be done and doing it. Discussing these character values at home reinforces their importance.  When we work together at school and at home great things are possible.

 It is not unusual for students to be tired and “out of sorts” the first few weeks of school. The change in their sleep and meal routines alone may cause some stress and then when you add on the expectations of school - it is understandable that most children will react. If problems persist or are more extreme than you feel is typical for your child, talk with your child’s teacher and contact me. If I can do anything to help you or your student, please let me know. You can email me at:    Elizabeth.johnston@southlakecarroll.edu 

or call 817 949 4500 to schedule an appointment.

Kindest regards,

 

Ziba Johnston

JES Counselor
