JCDE Quote of the Week: “Action is the real measure of intelligence.”

Here is the design of the seven pieces of equipment that will be replacing three pieces in the playground. I am very excited to see this project come together. These pieces will be in the pea gravel section closest to the elementary gym. The grassy areas and trees are just added in for looks.

THE PLAYGROUND AREA IS CLOSED FOR TWO WEEKS FOR CONSTRUCTION .

We have been serving a large number of students for breakfast. In order to make this process run as smoothly as possible, here are some things you can do to help us serve the students more efficiently: - If your child is a morning car rider, please have them here no later than 7:55. - Discuss with your child if they would like to eat breakfast for that day. - If your child rides early bus 9 or dropped off before 7:45 they can eat at 7:30.
