April 3, 2014

Dear Parents,

Today starts our annual online Parent Survey. You will be provided with a link to

go online and complete the survey. We ask you complete a separate survey for each

child you have at Jacksonville. Every child has been given a certificate to be filled in by

the parent once you have completed the survey. Upon returning the certificate to the

teacher, your child will be given a homework pass.

Site Base and PTA analyze the data provided by the survey. When a significant

difference in the percentage from last year’s survey is noted, the committees review any

positive changes or needed changes which are then implemented in the following school

year. Both groups sincerely appreciate your time and effort completing the survey.

There will be two openings on the Site Base committee for the upcoming school

year. If you are interested in being considered, please submit your name and why you

would like to be a part of the JES governance committee to the principal by April 28th

.

All letters will then be given anonymously to the PTA Executive Board, who will choose

the two new Site Base members.

As of today, we still have not heard a definitive last day of school. Dr. Dance is

requesting a waiver for some of the school days missed due to the weather. Once we hear

what the last day is, we will send out a connect ed message to all. Also the fifth grade

farewell will be on the second to the last day, as in the past.

The next two months will be “packed” with special events and happenings at

Jacksonville. We encourage you to refer to the calendar to see what is pending. Next

Focused on Quality Committed to Excellence

week we will be holding our Annual Science Fair on Tuesday, April 8, 6:00-7:00. The

fourth and fifth grade students have been working diligently on their projects following

the scientific method. The first place winner from each grade will represent JES at the

county-wide fair which will be held in May.

Report cards will be distributed on Thursday, April 10. Spring break begins at the

end of the school day on Friday, April 11 and school reopens Tuesday, April 22.

Belated congratulations to our Destination Imagination Team, Mitchell Burus,

Andrew Podles, Michael Schmidt, Ben Sharples, Rushil Vangara, and Katie Zhu, who

came in sixth place in the regional competition. This is the first year JES has participated.

Also congratulations to Kathy Yao who represented JES in the county wide Math 24

competition. Kathy earned the fourth highest score for girls (18 out of 78 total

participants)! Also a big thank you is extended to Mrs. Tracey Daniels, Mr. John Brown,

and Mr. Tim Hurley for sponsoring these competitions.

Also thank you to everyone who contributed to the Daniels and Clark families

who both suffered tragic fires within a month of each. They are very appreciative of

everything that has been done to help them during these times.

Happy spring!

Debbie Glinowiecki

Thank you……

Dear Jacksonville Staff and Families,

I just wanted to take a moment to offer my sincere thanks and gratitude for all of

the support you have provided to me and my family following our devastating house fire.

Although we lost pretty much everything, the encouragement and gifts we have received

have been a blessing that has helped to keep us on our feet. This support has assisted us

in carrying on with our everyday lives, providing as much normalcy as possible to my

four children. The money, gift cards, and notes have been amazing and I am very

fortunate to be a part of such an incredible and caring community. Thank you again for

everything!

Sincerely,

Tracey Daniels,

Special Educator

The Walter’s Art Museum 2014 Exhibit

Way to go Jacksonville student artists!

Six third-graders had their artwork displayed in the K-8 county wide exhibit

at The Walter's Art Museum Sunday March 16th: Allie Reed, Hailey

Greaves, Vinny Mendel, Dean Troy, Keegan Toomey, and Sarah Szalczyk.

The students and their families enjoyed seeing their watercolor paintings of

Rome and Venice hanging in this amazing museum.

And to make us even prouder, of all of the hundreds of artworks in the show

our Allie Reed’s painting of a bridge in Rome was the only one chosen to be

featured on the exhibit's display sign/poster .

Another great part of the show was that 5 Jacksonville alumni were also

selected to be exhibited for their middle schools: Mae Dickens, Haley

Murname, Claire Worthington, Emily Zhang, and Kaitlin Rowan.

Their hard work and talent really paid off!

Baltimore County Team BCPS

1st Place Winner from Jacksonville Elementary School

Congratulations to our student artist, Katie Zhu. She is the

1st Place Winner, elementary level, in our We Are Team

BCPS art contest. Baltimore County Board of Education will

issue a news release next week to announce the winners, and

they will present her with her $50 prize at the Board of

Education Meeting on Tuesday, May 6, at 7 p.m. in Building E, on

the Baltimore County Public Schools’ Greenwood campus, 6901 N. Charles

Street in Towson, 21204.

The judges at the county level want to congratulate Katie on a unique, richly

textured, and uplifting piece of artwork. We want to congratulate Katie on

her terrific effort and super art skills!

She makes us proud! Way to go Katie!

Dollars for Dogs!

The Dollars for Dogs annual campaign will run through the end of April which is

Disabilities Awareness Month at Jacksonville. Each student is asked to drop $1.00 in the

donation bottle in the lobby. Dollars will be totaled and donated to The Seeing Eye in

Morristown, N.J. The Seeing Eye trains puppies to become guide dogs and then matches

those puppies to a visually impaired owner. They work with the puppy and owner to

ensure a perfect match. Over the past four years JES students have donated more

than $1,000.00 to the Seeing Eye and have adopted four puppies! Make sure to check

out the photographs of our puppies in the showcase lobby!

Math24 Club

Congratulations to Kathy Yao who represented Jacksonville Elementary at the Math 24

FROM THE PRESIDENTApril 1, 2014

Hello JES Families!

I hope this finds all of you well. What a winter we have had! Hard to believe its April 1 and we don’t even have cherry blossoms yet. Let’s all think warm Spring thoughts and maybe Spring will join us!

With Spring, we have many things to look forward to: Blood Drive, Teacher Appreciation Week, and Spring Carnival to name a few! These are all great opportunities to get involved and volunteer at JES. Please take a few moments to read about these opportunities in this newsletter.

Speaking of volunteering, our JES PTA Executive Board will be changing next year since most of us are facing our 2 year term limit. This is a great time to step up and take a leadership position. You do not have to have prior experience to join our board; simply let me know that you are interested in helping! In particular, we need someone willing to take on the role of Treasurer and so far, no one has jumped at the chance to be President. Can you believe it? It’s actually a fun job! It’s a great opportunity to work with wonderful people who pull off all kinds of amazing feats and love to help. It’s an awesome opportunity to give back to your community and learn a lot too. Why not consider a JESPTA leadership position? Email me if you are interested.

Thank you all for your generous donations to help the Clark family these last few weeks. With your help, JES donated more than $4000 and many household goods – once again a caring community effort to assist a family facing a very difficult time! The family has let me know how grateful they are to the community for the support and donations. Donations efforts are ongoing, so please don’t hesitate if you have household goods to give or want to donate $.

I’m looking forward to seeing so many of you at JES Day at Camden Yards on April 27– Go O’s! Thanks to Christina Michael for coordinating huge ticket sales for this event!

Happy Spring!

With kind regards,

Kathryn Delahanty – StewartPTA PresidentDelahantyStewart@gmail.com
