Our Juniper Jaguars have shown amazing commitment to coming to school each day! Students with perfect or near-perfect attendance celebrated their success with a fun Game Day Extravaganza filled with smiles, games, and teamwork. Way to go, Jaguars!
Our October Jungle cross-grade activity brought students together to create puzzle pieces that represent being part of our school family. Each piece showed how every student is a special and important part of our Jaguar community!
Thank you to everyone who joined us for our 2nd Coffee with Cottingham!
