Tonight, Jay Shideler hosted our first-ever Literacy Night, and it was a great evening filled with family, fun, friends, and literacy! 📚

Students played games, made crafts and snacks, and enjoyed read-aloud stories throughout the evening. A huge thank you to Mrs. Bradshaw, Mrs. Nelson, and Ms. Lynch for all of the time and effort they put into planning this event, and to our amazing JSE staff who helped make the night such a success for our families.

We loved seeing so many families in the building and celebrating literacy together! 💙📖

Just keep swimming… all the way to the top! 🐠🪼🐙

A huge congratulations to all five of our finalists for sharing their creativity with us. And to Nora, our Yearbook Cover Art Contest Winner…. Your artwork made a BIG splash, and we’re so excited to see it featured on this year’s yearbook cover! 💙💙

Our Blue Jays celebrated a successful Blue Jay Dash today, raising over $22,000 for their school! Students got a special “kids only” spirit cart full of yummy treats. Way to go Blue Jays!! 💙

We are so excited for our very first Literacy Night tomorrow! 📚

Join us for a fun evening filled with literacy activities, a read-aloud, and more!
Here’s a sneak peek at some of the amazing raffle prizes we’ll have. We can’t wait to see our Blue Jay families tomorrow night!

Today was the first day of our JSE N.E.S.T. Groups! At Jay Shideler, N.E.S.T. stands for Nurturing Every Student Together.

Students spent time with a different teacher and a mix of students from across the building, participating in fun activities and getting to know new people. N.E.S.T. Groups will continue throughout the school year as we work to build connections and relationships across our school.

We’re excited to watch these new friendships grow this year! 💙

Our first Spirit Cart of the year made it around the building on Friday. Thank you to our wonderful parents who sponsor these snacks for our staff. We LOVE them!
