Front of Building This weekend more work was done on the roped off area in front of school. The ground was aerated, fertilized and seeded with grass. This is all done by a private donor and supporter of Jefferson. We have this area roped off to keep people from walking in this area so we can get the grass to grow. Please stay off of this area.

Gum We are finding an increasing amount of gum on the floor in classrooms, hallways and stairwells. Gum is difficult to clean up especially on the stairwells and on carpet. The school policy allows you to chew gum at school as long as you do so in a respectful and responsible way. Our custodians work hard and do a fantastic job at keeping our building clean. Let's not give them extra work. Please dispose of your gum in waste baskets. Wrap it in a tissue or piece of paper so it doesn't stick to the waste can. If there continues to be gum on the floors we will have to go to a "NO Gum" rule at school. So if you want to chew gum at school, keep it off the floor. Gum is never allowed in the auditorium!
