A message from Admin
As we wave goodbye to January, I wanted to take a moment to connect with you and share some exciting things happening as we step into February. Last week we had the Star Lab, we hope your students came home excited and telling you all about everything they learned. These last few months of the 23-24 school year will be full of lots of learning and activities.
Literacy Unlocked
We have so many different things to celebrate in February. We have Black History Month, Groundhog Day, Chinese New Year, Valentine's Day, and President's Day. Here are several great read aloud books that you and your student(s) can share together.

Just in time information
Pre-Kindergarten lottery registration for the 2024-25 school year is now open. Families can register for the lottery through Friday, February 16. Please note this application does not guarantee admission into a Pre-K program inside the Jackson County School System, but is rather an application into the lottery. JCSS will hold a lottery drawing in March and families will be notified following the drawing. To register, please visit Jackson County Registration. For questions or concerns, please email central_registration@jcss.us.
It is VERY IMPORTANT for all families to set up an Infinite Campus Parent Portal Account. Click HERE to set up your child's account. This account allows you to receive important school messages through the Remind app, see student grades and attendance. If you have trouble with this process, email Mrs. West (rebecca.west@jcss.us). After a parent portal account has been activated, please allow 24 hours for the information to sync with the Remind app to be able to message teachers. If you are unable to use Remind at any time, please send your child's teacher an email.
