Dear Parents and Guardians,
Welcome to autumn! As the leaves begin to change, we are excited to embrace the crisp air and warm energy that fall brings to Jefferson Craig Elementary.
As we step into our second nine weeks, our focus remains on keeping the joy of learning at the heart of everything we do. Approaching each day with clear eyes, full hearts, and continuous hope for our students, we are dedicated to ensuring every child feels supported, inspired, and enthusiastic about coming to school.
As always, we encourage all families to review the JC Student Handbook to keep expectations aligned regarding attendance, routines, and a safe learning environment. Please also take a moment to ensure your Skyward contact numbers are up to date so you don't miss important Skylert notifications.
Thank you for your ongoing partnership and support. Let’s keep this wonderful momentum going as we look forward to a successful and inspiring second nine weeks!
Warmest regards,
Principal, Tony Spoores
Jefferson Craig Elementary
