If you bundled sweet, kind, caring and helpful into a package and sprinkled in a dash of adorable, you’d have Harlow Thomas. Harlow was nominated for a Positive Office Referral for always helping others and for being an awesome assistant to her teacher. I told Harlow that I’d hire her to be our next kindergarten teacher when she’s ready! Super proud of you, Harlow! 💜💛
Ms. Mahoney
All parents/caregivers of Jefferson County Schools are invited to this FREE event. Registration is REQUIRED to attend and the deadline is March 20th.
Thank you!
We work hard to inspire our students to be good citizens and to make the world a better place. Some of our students just naturally put those ideas into action and are already leading the way for others. Fourth grader, Zoey Traywick, is one of those leaders. She is always offering to help others and to lend a hand whenever she sees the need. That is love in action. That is Zoey. Congratulations on your Positive Office Referral—-it is well-deserved! 💜🥳
Meet fourth-grader, Cheyenne Hess.
Cheyenne was nominated for a Positive Office Referral by her teacher for her incredible kindness, enthusiasm for learning and awesome smile! Way to bring sunshine to SJES every day, Cheyenne! You’re an excellent role model for all of us! ☀️😁
Fourth grade is well into their study of “the Birth of Rocks”! In this unit of study, the students will investigate features and processes of the Earth's surface and explore the rapid process of volcanic eruptions! In contrast, students will also explore the gradual Earth processes of weathering and erosion and apply their knowledge and design solutions to mitigate the impacts of these processes on humans.
Ms. Brooks’ “rock stars” were hard at work on volcanic mapping and lava making!
It was all hands on deck as Mrs. Hipp’s third graders learned about perimeter! Hands on learning and high levels of engagement = fun!
Happy Valentine's Day to our SJES community!

We have a wonderful role model walking our halls and his name is Ares Cunningham. We had a substitute teacher in PE and Ares assisted the substitute, was kind and helpful and also helped clean up after class. What a fantastic example for everyone at SJES—-thank you, Ares!!! This Positive Principal Referral is well-deserved! 💜💛 Ms. Mahoney
