Let's make some noise for our teachers on #NationalTeachersDay!!!
Teachers don't just teach the students of JCPS, they inspire, motivate, mentor, and coach them. Our teachers pour their hearts and souls into their students each and every day. Teaching is a calling, and we are forever grateful to those who have answered that call, and have chosen JCPS to fulfill their purpose!
THANK YOU TEACHERS!!!💝👏
Next up...Tamara Poland, Principal of Polenta Elementary! Ms. Poland has a tremendous impact on the students and staff of Polenta. Her hard work, passion, and bright smile shine through every day.
Puma family, let's give a round of applause to Ms. Poland for being the exceptional leader she is! ✨🐱
Mrs. Coffey has done an outstanding job stepping in to be the sub in one of our Exceptional Children's classrooms. She goes above and beyond each day to ensure the students are getting what they need and they are worming to meet their goals.
Mrs. Morse is wearing multiple hats, and does it all with a smile! She welcomes students with a smile, positive comment, & makes them feel important. She sets high expectations and then helps students stretch to attain them. No one is beyond the reach of her compassion & support!
There was a large group of students, parents and staff who turned out for our annual See you at the Pole meeting this morning. Thank you everyone who showed up this morning.
