Working Together for the Awesome JMS Community!

Restocking the SUN Community Pantry
The SUN Community Food & Hygiene Pantry is such a great resource for those in need at JMS. Thank you to everyone who donated last month! After the long winter break, it needs some filling up, so please check the list here and sign up for what you would like to bring. It has been revised, and you can sign up for more than one item. Please deliver your donations by Friday, January 31st to either the SUN Classroom or to the office in a bag marked “SUN Community Pantry." Thank you!

They Don't Get the Day Off, So Let's Buy Them Lunch!
The kids will have Monday, January 27th off for end of the term Teacher Planning, but the JMS staff will be hard at work. So, for our January Staff Appreciation event, we’re buying them lunch. We are looking for volunteers to donate cash and/or Costco gift cards to purchase pizza or to bring in salad, fruit and desserts. Sign up here to show our JMS staff just how much they mean to us!

Picture Yourself On The PTA Board
The PTA Board has openings for the 2020-21 school year for our President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary and Membership positions. With this many spots needing to be filled, we wanted to get an early start! To allow for time to learn the positions from the current Board, we hope to have a full slate of candidates in time for our April PTA meeting.  For more information or to express interest in any of these roles, please email Michelle Marsden at:  vicepresident@jacksonpta.org

We are also looking for a Committee Lead for the fall Bernstein Bash, and someone who would like to be the new Webmaster for the PTA website. Please contact Jessica Christiansen for details about these roles at: jess_jon@msn.com
