PTO Popcornopolis Update
Popcorn distribution will be the first week of December. Anyone that sold more than 10 bags of popcorn will need to pick up their full order at school. The Charlestown Parks Department has informed us that the train is currently undergoing more updates and will not be available until Spring for us to use for our Popcorn reward.
Child Abuse/Child Sexual Abuse Prevention Lessons
District Parent Informational Letter
All public schools in Indiana are required to provide age appropriate instruction on child abuse and child sexual abuse to students in Kindergarten through 12th grade. It’s important that children hear the foundations of safety in these areas both at school and at home. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the delivery of these lessons, please contact your child’s school.
Scholastic Book Fair- Dec. 9-13
The Scholastic Book Fair will be at JJES the week of December 9-13. All students will visit the book fair on their scheduled class visit. Only students with money to purchase items will be able to visit the Book Fair on Friday. Classroom Visit Book Fair Schedule
We are also in need of parent volunteers to help work our Book Fair. Please sign up on the Sign Up Genius form, if interested. You MUST have a limited background check on file to volunteer.
Students are able to bring cash to purchase items at the Book Fair, but families can also set up an EWallet account to deposit money for students to spend at the Book Fair. If you are interested in using EWallet, please click the EWallet Link.
