Recently our Jefferson Second graders visited an Eighth grade class for a special reading buddies session. Second graders brought their reading bins and shared time showing off their great reading skills to our Eighth graders. They then ended their time with a dance party. Our Eighth graders were great role models for our Second graders, showing kindness and patience. A fun time was had by everyone. A special thank you goes out to Mrs. Gabrick for organizing this great special time.
Jefferson students who are a part of our Men of Distinction program were treated to a Cleveland Cavs game recently. They attended the game with their mentors.

This is an ongoing program in its second year here at Jefferson, organized by our middle school counselor Mrs. Vlahos-Hall.

Kindergarten students and family members carved pumpkins recently as part of an annual program here at the school. We would like to thank Believer’s Church for their help and generous donation that provided pumpkins and carving tools for all the students. The kindergarten students were able to take their pumpkins home at the end of the day.
5th grade students in Ms. McCracken’s class were visited by special guest Mayor Franklin recently. He read two books to the students and spent some time visiting with them.
