JDE Weekly Parent Update 11/22/2024

Panther Parents, 

In this season of gratitude, please know that we are thankful for you, and your amazing children that you share with us every day. We are grateful for your partnership, and for the opportunity to play such an important part in the lives of our students. We wish your families a Happy Thanksgiving!

Next week our students will only attend school on Monday and Tuesday. Schools will be closed in celebration of the Thanksgiving holiday November 27-29. Students will return to school on Monday, December 2. The next parent update will be sent on Friday, December 6. 

Updates for this Week:

• New! Angel Tree Update--Thank you to everyone that signed up to help our school community for  our annual Angel Tree.  Just a friendly reminder to have your labeled wrapped gifts at school by December 6 so we ensure that families receive their gifts in time for the holidays. 
  
  • If you have any questions, please contact Traci Johnson or Erin Clancy.

• Homework Resources for Families–We have a section of “Instructional Resources” linked on our JDE website. Here you will find reading and math support. We hope to expand this section as more sites become available. 
  • We know math can be particulary challenging since strategies taught in classes today are often different from how parents were taught in elementary school.  Please click this link for a site provide by WCPSS to explore more.

With pride,

Altonia Bransome, Principal
