Building Project Update

Construction continues in the Courtyard and Middle School Wing. The windows have been removed and filled in with masonry block. All excavation and grading has been completed and a moisture barrier has been installed. The wall in the elementary gym has been cut for new door entry into the courtyard.

The batting cages have been demolished. Work will continue after the completion of the courtyard.

In the weeks to come, concrete will be poured in the courtyard, rubber tiles will be installed, and grading for the baseball/softball batting cages will take place.

All these projects will surely enhance the aesthetic and functionality at JCSD. The finished projects will be great!

HS Students Promote Recycling

The 10th grade students in Integrated Science II are responsible for the recycling in the building throughout the year. They are responsible for picking up recycling from classrooms every Monday. In an effort to try to get everyone in the school to recycle and know the importance of recycling, students were broken into groups to present to each class PK-8. They presented what recycling is, the importance of recycling, what can be recycled at school, and what can not be recycled at school. The younger students really seemed to enjoy the presentations and the interaction with high school students. Mrs. Giraud, the high school science teacher, states, “I feel it is important for every student and teacher to know the why, what, and how's of recycling to make this as impactful as possible.”
