and boy are we gonna be busy!! We will be starting our play practice Monday December 1st. Our class will perform on Thursday December 11th at 7 pm. Our class shirts have come in and I will be picking them up tomorrow, but I will be holding on to them until after our Christmas play. I just want to make sure everyone has their's for the night of the BIG performance!!
Our class has also "adopted" a child for Christmas!! This is something that I like to do each year with my firsties!! Often my kiddos get caught up in the idea of Christmas being all about what they "get", but I love to teach them that Christmas is a time for giving, especially to others in need. There will be information coming home to you tomorrow about this child. Please know that the child we "adopted" is close to my heart, and is truly a need child. She is eight years old and a great child. She is an amazing little girl!! If you have any questions or concerns about this please let me know and I will answer them to the best of my knowledge!! I am looking so forward to making her Christmas extra special!
Finally, we are going to be having a great time our last 3 days of school before winter break. I will also be sending home information about this tomorrow as well. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns about this, too. I am going to need parents to help on Wednesday, December 17 and Thursday, December 18th. If you think you can please let me know ASAP!!

November already????
Can you believe we are in November already?? Where has the time gone!?!
Thank you to all of my amazing parents who were able to make it in and meet with me for parent conferences. If you weren't able to make it in and would like to conference by phone just let me know and I would be happy to do so.
Thank you also to everyone that has sent in snack so far this year! The children really look forward to snack Fridays! If you are ever assigned a Friday and it is going to be difficult for you, just drop me a note and we can reschedule your day.
The Thanksgiving Holiday is fast approaching and with that being said I would like to invite our parents to eat in the cafeteria with us on Thursday, November 20th at 11:00. We will be having our Thanksgiving lunch that day served by our lunchroom staff. If you would like to join us just let me know so we save room at the table for you :)
Also, we are performing the JBE Christmas play this year on December 11th I believe. We will be performing at the WHS auditorium. We will begin practice for the play when we return from our Thanksgiving Break on Monday, December 1st. This is going to be something you will not want to miss!!

· Breakfast is served from 7:25-7:45
· Students may be dropped off at 7:20 when supervision begins
· The first days of school are exciting and also a transition. Please follow the request below though we ask that you transition into dropping your child off in the car loop as soon as possible.
o First and Second Grade:
§ May be walked to class the 1-2 days
§ Must be dropped off in the car rider loop after the first couple of days
· Students must be dropped off by 7:45 to make it to class before 7:50.
· Students are never to be dropped off at the back gate (near the football field entrance). Parents are not permitted to park and enter our campus at this gate either.
· Tardies are marked at 7:50. 3 tardies and/or check-outs convert to an absence.
· Students MAY NOT be checked out after 1:30 each day
· Recommendation: The parent pick up line can be very long the first two weeks of school as more parents pick up their child than normal. It is recommended that if you do not want to wait in a long line, pull up about 2:30 and your wait should be much shorter.
· Afternoon parent pick-up: Parents MUST pick students up in their vehicle in the car line. Parents are not permitted to park and walk up to the gate. Parent pick up cards must be displayed or the parent will have to park and go to the front office to show identification to pick the child up. These rules are for the safety of all.
· A student’s regular afternoon transportation is recorded and changes are only accepted in writing. Transportation changes cannot be made over the phone unless it is an emergency situation and identification of the caller will be required.
· When coming on campus, all visitors must first check in at the front office with state issued identification, which will be scanned by the Raptor system, and a badge will be printed and must be worn at all times. Parents are NOT permitted to go directly to the classroom.
· Teachers are in charge of supervision and instruction of all students beginning at 7:45. Please do not enter the classroom after this time unless volunteering. Conferences may be scheduled outside of instructional time. Teachers may also be contacted by phone (528-3341) or by email.
· Our school has an active website (jbe.levyschools.org) with teacher pages, a Facebook page, and an always up-to-date Google calendar.
· JBE invites all parents to attend our SAC and PTO meetings on the 2nd Tuesday of September, October, November, February, March, and April. We welcome your involvement in our school.
· Field trips are for JBE students only. Parents are NOT permitted to bring other children (younger or older).
· We are a Title I School which makes the Resource Lab in Bronson available to parents for use to get materials to help your child at home.
· A letter will be mailed when your child reaches 6 absences to warn parents of the concern of the child failing all subject areas if the child reaches 9 absences.
· If your child reaches nine absences, he or she will be given failing grades for that nine weeks. Once a child reaches 10 absences, a conference will be scheduled with administration. If attendance does not improve, a court date will be scheduled at the Levy County Courthouse.
· Please make every effort to schedule appointments on days off and after 2:10. It is important to get a doctor’s note when missing school due to any doctor appointments so that it is excused.
