Week of 2/26

Hi Everyone,

     We are almost through another week. I can't believe that February is over already. March will be just as busy as February.

     Permission slips for our field trip to St. Augustine. The field trip will be on Thursday March 15th. This field trip goes with our social studies Florida History studies. Students will get to have a guided tour of the Castillo de san Marcos. We will also take a trolley tour of other historical sites of the city. 
     The cost of the trip is $15 for students and chaperones. However, we are limited to 4 chaperones. If you are interested in being a chaperone please do not send in your money now. Instead send me an email or write your name on the line Person interested in serving as Volunteer Chaperone line on the bottom of the perimission slip. Please let me know no later than March 7th. If we have more than 4 people interested I will put names into a hat and draw. Preference will be given to parents who have not been on a field trip yet (library/zoo). Thanks so much for your consideration and support.

     We have started our PTA Super Hero Sprint fundraiser!! This fundraiser is modeled after the Booster-thon fundraiser that we have done in the past. The awesomness of the Super Hero Sprint is that JBE will get to keep 100% of the money that is raised. in past years the Booster-thon company walked away with more than half of the money raised. Please consider giving a small donation if you can. The students are trying to earn classroom incentives. Even if you can't donate, please go to our class page and at least have your child register. Registering costs nothing and your child will earn a free homework pass. PTA is also planning some fun activities:

Socceer Day--Wear your soccer shirt. Wednesday 2/28 
Jaguar Day--Wear your Jaguars gear. Friday 3/2
Super Hero Day--Dress as your favorite super hero Tuesday 3/6
Surf Day--Wear your surf gear Wednesday 3/7
JBE Spirit Day--Wear a JBE shirt Thursday 3/8
Super Hero Sprint--Students will be given a shirt for the run Friday March 9th
4th Grade will go out to run at 10:45.
