Dear JCMES Families,
This week we are going straight to the important info because there is quite a bit happening! Please take a moment when you are able to read through some upcoming events at John C. Myers.
Title 1 Survey - We had over 300 people attend our literacy night last week! This event, sponsored by Title 1, is an important way for us to connect with families. Title 1 surveys are required to be sent out after each of our events however it’s much more than a requirement to us. It’s how we get better! Please take a moment and fill out the survey below if you attended Space Night last Thursday. English Survey Spanish Survey
Counseling Corner Newsletter - Our school counselors, Mrs. Hull and Mrs. Schlabach have a new newsletter for you with updates from the counseling department: https://www.smore.com/s6ymv
