What a great Power Skills Rally!
We wrapped up our focus on Encouragement by recognizing and celebrating students who have been working extra hard and putting this important power skill into action! We are so proud of their efforts and growth!
We also introduced our next tool in the toolbox: Assertiveness! Students are learning how to use their voices, express themselves confidently, and stand up for themselves and others in a positive way.

More from our 1st Quarter Relax and Reset Day!

Students enjoyed choosing from fun activities like crafts, science experiments, dance parties, Bingo, and more! We loved seeing them explore new classrooms, connect with peers, and celebrate their growth! Great work Jefferson students, and thank you to our teachers who put so much time and effort into making this happen for our students!

As we wrap up National School Bus Safety Week, we want to thank our drivers and support staff. School buses are an important part of the educational experience. For many students, the school day begins and ends with a ride on a bus. When you include sporting events and extracurricular activities, some students can be on a bus 5-6 times a day.
School Bus safety is also a shared responsibility. To the drivers taking the students to/from school, the aides directing them on/off the bus, the people sharing important bus safety messages, and anyone in between, this appreciation post goes out to all of you.
This student-made flyer is a reminder that the DPS Music Boosters is having a Cookout at County Market this Saturday, October 24th from 11:00am-2:00pm.
