I just wanted to take a moment today and thank everyone for an amazing year. We learned a lot, played a lot, and built memories that will last a lifetime. We couldn't have done any of that without all of us working to build the best school possible for our kids! Amazing things are happening at JBE and I am so proud to be the principal of a school who always puts the kids first and makes sure that our students have the best educational experience ever both inside and outside of the classroom. I hope everyone has an amazing summer. If your child forgot anything at achool or you need to get a yearbook, we will be at school from 8 to 3 all week. I appreciate you all and am looking forward to see what next year brings!
