A NOTE FROM YOUR PTO
On Thursday November 18th the PTO welcomed Jeffrey students to the 2021 Holiday Shop! They were so excited to be able to shop for their special people and very thoughtful in their selections. Parent helpers assisted students with wrapping their gifts and the day was full of holiday cheer!
Thank you for all your generous donations of items that helped make a successful holiday shop!
The JES PTO is excited to partner with the Ryerson and Brown PTOs to present "Kindness BINGO"! All 3 schools will be participating in this fun way to spread kindness around town this holiday season.
At Jeffrey, the 3rd Grade Leadership Team will be visiting all classrooms the week of 12/6 to distribute the Kindness BINGO board and explain the "rules" to their fellow students. All students who achieve "BINGO" are invited to go to the Scranton Library
to submit their card, get a small prize, and enter a fun raffle!
At the library there will also be plain quilting squares for students to decorate. We will be working with the Madison Senior Center
to create a community quilt for display with the finished squares.
Please join us to spread love and kindness around Madison this holiday season! Kindness BINGO will run from 12/6 - 1/3.
