Woohoo JES Staff! I just wanted to thank my amazing crew for their hard work, passion and commitment (especially through these challenging times) to having another successful visible learning year. They were already back and hard at it moving rooms, planning for students, scheduling, helping new teachers get moved in and setting up for next school year. Amazing work you guys - I am already looking forward to next school year. For now...enjoy your summer break! - Rhonda Palic
We want to extend our sincerest gratitude to our wonderful music teacher, Mrs. Bethany Jacobs and her junior high students for hosting a terrific show choir camp. She had an amazing turnout and the students did a fantastic job. Thank you Mrs. Jacobs (and students) for continuing your work during the summer to GROW GREAT KIDS!

Second and third graders were able to go on a field trip to the Overland Trail Museum in Sterling. They got to learn all about a child’s life on the prairie with interactive activities such as gathering eggs, sweeping, and washing clothes on a washboard and hanging them out to dry.
The students also got to pan for gold and take some gold home. They had to determine whether it was real gold or fool’s gold.
We were amazed at all the artifacts. If you’re looking for something to do this summer, we would definitely recommend the museum. The first Saturday of every month they also do other craft activities with kids and kids 12 and under are free that first Saturday!
Thank you to PTO for sponsoring our trip. Thanks also to Mr. Stan for driving the bus so we could go.
Mrs. Jacobs and the high school Show Choir are ready for the big day tomorrow! Don't forget to have registered students to the high school at 9 AM for a day of Show Choir Camp!
8th grade’s final lab was to design a solar collector to bake a marshmallow for s’mores.

May 24-29, 2021 Activity Calendar
Kindergarten filled their marble jar for good behavior and compliments earned. They chose to have a balloon party. They had a lot of fun!
One of the second grade science standards is helping students understand how seeds are spread. In order to do this, the students created an animal from play dough, cardboard, cotton balls, styrofoam, pipe cleaners, etc. They then got to test their “animal” to see if it picked up seeds and carried the seeds. We discussed what they would change about their animal if it didn’t pick up the seeds they way they thought it would. The other ways they learned seeds are moved in nature are by wind and water. One student even brought in a floater seed they recognized from the lesson. Great job second grade!
Kindergarten is using their bodies to form letters.
Kindergarten is working on writing complete sentences. We are using the word wall to help us.
