Students in third and fourth grade invited families into their classroom to experience a literacy lesson. Teachers led a full lesson and their student showed the process they went through to complete their work. Thank you to all the family members that took time out of their day to see the great things happening at the ‘J’!
Thanks to the generosity of members of Believers Church, every student in grades K-2 received Christmas gifts this December. All the gifts were purchased and wrapped by members of the church. We then had volunteers from the church deliver the gifts to some very happy students. Thank you again, Believers Church!
Elementary classrooms welcomed families for a variety of events prior to the winter break. Students and their guests were treated to stories, treats, and activities. Thank you to all the families that took time out of their day to come and spend time with their student.
Jefferson held its spelling bee for grades three through five and also for grades six through eight. Students worked for weeks leading up the event. Our winners will represent Jefferson at the regional spelling bee. Great job to all the participants.
Jefferson students in grades three through five celebrated before the holidays with their annual snowflake ball. Students earned points leading up to the event that they were able to use to redeem treats. The highlight occurred when two fifth grade students were named king and queen of the ball. They were chosen based on their essays that every fifth grader had written. Middle school student council members also helped at the ball. A special thank you to Mrs. Mesaros for organizing this event each year.
Students at Jefferson led a school-wide service project that raised money for the Trumbull County Dog Pound. Selling snow cones during lunch, they were able to raise $584.00. This money was used to buy blankets, leashes, and treats for the dogs at the pound. Great job to Macey, Reuben, and Alex who led the service project.
Jefferson middle school choir members spread Christmas cheer before winter break by caroling throughout the school. Students, under the direction of Miss Richter, practiced carols during their class time and walked the halls singing several Christmas favorites.
Congratulations to Kayden, our middle school Geography Bee winner. He competed against numerous other students who studied geography topics over several weeks. Thank you to Mrs. Gabrick for organizing this event for Jefferson students.
