Hello,
This is Ms. Shuler, principal at Jouett Elementary. I am so proud of how well our LEGENDARY Trailblazers have adjusted to returning to school after a great full week together!
Here are the key updates and reminders for the upcoming week:
-
Assessments: Students will take beginning-of-year reading and math assessments to help us tailor instruction and small-group support.
-
Safety Drills: We will practice our first lockdown drill (Pre-K and Kindergarten are exempt) as well as a bus evacuation drill this week.
-
Bus Rules Review: Students will review transportation rules this week. Students will bring home an LCPS bus safety pamphlet, and we ask that you review the pamphlet with students.
-
Outside Food Policy: Please remember no shared outside food is allowed until after August 31. Individual lunches and snacks are perfectly fine.
-
PTA Fundraiser: The PTA is sending fliers about the Fun Run Fall Fundraiser home with students on Monday, August 24. The fundraiser will end on October 2nd. Please help us make this event LEGENDARY!
