If you do not wish to keep your student's Family Group shirt, or if they've outgrown their gym shoes, consider donating them back to Jefferson. Mrs. Monce keeps a supply of gym shoes for students in need, and Family Group shirts can be used again, as well.
Thanks for considering!
Thirty-four seniors, who were once-upon-a-time Jefferson sixth graders, joined us this morning for a special breakfast in their honor. Following a time of eating and visiting with each other and their former teachers, these students donned their caps and gowns and walked the halls to cheers from current Spartans.
How we LOVE this tradition! Congratulations, Spartan Seniors! #WCSmission

The 3rd grade Showcase of Learning was a great time! Students learned about ecosystems. They conducted research and drafted writing pieces about an animal that might be able to survive in a different environment. Great job, Spartans!
