JSE Lost and Found
Our lost and found is overflowing! Take a look at the slideshow found HERE. If any item looks familiar to you, fill out the form below and we will make sure your child comes back home with that item.
The Topeka Zoo is hosting a Writing and Art Contest! Students were encouraged to write a fictional story or create an art piece raising awareness of any real-life conservation issue (habitat loss, poaching, climate change, threatened and endangered species, and more). These kiddos chose to create art projects and have been working hard on them for several weeks. Launched by the Topeka Zoo’s High School EcoClub, the art contest is in its 5th year! Students could submit any kind of art
(drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, etc.). The projects will be on display at the Topeka Zoo on April 18th and winners will be announced on Facebook Live earlier in the week. Good luck!
Huge thank you to the Washburn University basketball players and Envista Credit Union for helping us celebrate our Blue Jay Perseverance Award winners! 💙🏀
Your support meant so much to our students! 💛
