Over the past few weeks, students at Jefferson have collected more than 150 lbs of pop tabs to donate to Ronald McDonald House Charities.

Congratulations to all of the Jefferson students who received Shout-Outs from staff in the 3rd quarter.
(Post 2 of 2) It's already the end of the 3rd quarter! Jefferson students enjoyed their Hawaiian themed celebration with limbo, beachball volleyball, and a photo booth in the gym and hot potato, coloring pages, and a drum circle in the library. Everyone looked ready for the beach in their Hawaiian print shirts and the leis they bought with bee bucks from our amazing student council. Keep up the great work everyone! #HarvardRising

Tuesday 2-22-22
Dress your best for the ultimate TWO's Day! Twins, Ties, Tiaras, and Tutus! Get creative: Twin with a friend, wear a tie, tiara, or tutu OR wear two of something - 2 hats, etc.
Although masks are strongly recommended in school buildings, masks are still required on buses per federal guidelines. Please make sure your child has a mask to get on the bus each day. If your student forgets a mask, the bus driver may have extras. Please encourage your child to use that mask for both bus rides that day.
February is Black History Month! #HarvardRising
D50 is hosting a Vaccination Clinic tomorrow, February 15. This clinic is open to all of our community.

SAVE YOUR POP TABS! HELP OTHERS IN NEED.
This quarter Jefferson Elementary School will introduce a school-wide project to encourage kindness and giving. Students will learn first hand that small actions can make a big difference when we all work together.
Ronald McDonald House Charities provide a low-cost place for families to stay when their beloved child needs treatment at the hospital. Working in conjunction with RMH Charities, we are asking our students and families to collect pop tabs. The money from our students’ collections will be used to sponsor families staying at Ronald McDonald Houses.
Students may bring the pop tabs to school and add them to the classroom collection bin. Every two weeks, pop tabs will be collected and weighed, and our school progress will be monitored.
We hope to collect 50 lbs. of pop tabs between now and the end of April. This would provide a donation of up to $2,750.00 from Jefferson Elementary School.To keep students motivated, rewards will be earned as the school total reaches 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% of our goal!
Thank you for being part of this giving project.
