1) Jefferson Wellness classes are participating in Live Healthy Iowa Kids again this year. The pink calendar began Saturday, February 8th and ends Friday, February 21st. Students are to be recording vegetable servings and activity minutes on these calendars. The pink calendars will be due February 25th to Mrs. Lucas and Mr. Wischmeyer. Any questions, please ask the Wellness teachers.
2) The office is sending out bills to parents and the library would like students to check your lockers and backpacks for overdue library books. Please return them as soon as you can so that you won’t have charges for the books. Thank you, Ms. Duclos and Ms. Neyens.
3) This is "No Unkind Words Week". An important part of being kind is thinking about how another person feels. It may be helpful to stop and think before you say something. Ask how you would feel if someone said that to you. Let's all work to create a school where everyone feels welcome and safe. During this week, the Anti-Bullying Alliance is hoping that you have been thinking about the words you use. When people use fewer unkind words, and more kind words, it can be contagious. Are you part of the problem or part of the solution? 8th graders, please check your lockers after homebase.
4) March 7th is our next school dance. In the spirit of “March Madness” we will have a 3 on 3 basketball tournament if we have enough teams sign up.
