It is time to celebrate some Attendance Champs for last week! 3rd Grade brought home the belt with over 97% attendance during Homecoming Week, and awesome kids from each grade level earned Attendance Champ shirts for being here 100% of the time last week! We had 3 grade levels over 95% attendance as well, as represented by earning another bar for our Attendance Chart! I wonder what Grade is going to come out on top by mid term?! #WeCanDoHardThings #YesWeCan!

🎉 September Rise Up Champs! 🎉

One of our favorite things each month is getting the chance to recognize students who are showing what it means to Rise Up at Jefferson!

Congratulations to Jace Escalante, Chance Patterson, Tobias Threatt, Lailah Drevyanko, Gabriella Marcos Pachuca, Severus Mezines, and Cataleya Hembd!

These students continue to lead through Respect, Integrity, Safety, and Excellence. Whether it is doing their job, helping others, making responsible choices, showing perseverance, or simply being someone others can count on, they are setting a great example for our Jefferson community.

We are proud of each of you. Keep leading!
