Jefferson Monthly Reading Challenge
October-April
Calling all readers!
We've just launched a school-wide reading goal to build a strong
community of readers — and have some fun along the way!
Here’s how it works:
-Read each month from October through April. Follow your grade level
guidelines
-Complete and return your grade-level Reading Log by the end of each
month
-Turn in ALL 7 logs to be invited to our BIG end-of-year celebration!
This celebration will be something you definitely don’t want to miss out on!
Think fun, surprises, and a whole lot of excitement to reward your amazing reading
journey!
Let’s make reading a habit and celebrate your hard work in a BIG
way!
Start logging those minutes — every book, every page, every month
counts! Help us reach our goal of 100% participation!
Thank you to those who were able to join us for Walk and Roll on this crisp fall morning. A special shout-out goes to Miss Mayes County, Leah White, for joining us!
Join us for National Walk to School Day on Wednesday, October 8th at 7:40 AM. We will meet at the large pavilion and walk to school together!
Attention Tiger Families, enrollment forms for the AfterSchool November - December Rotation #2 session are coming home with students today. Remember to check those backpacks!
Don't forget about picture day on Thursday, October 2nd! All students will have their picture taken for the yearbook, so bring your best smile!
Why did Mrs. Jewls throw the computer out the window?
Because it was teaching the class to spell “chrysanthemum.” 😂
We promise our literacy activities won’t require throwing anything out the window!
📂 Check your child’s folder this week for their guide, and keep reading Sideways Stories from Wayside School.
Let’s make National Literacy Month as fun and wacky as Wayside School!

Mrs. Gorf turned kids into apples when they didn’t pay attention…
Lucky for you, our literacy activities are way more fun (and way less dangerous)!

Did you know Wayside School was supposed to be one story with 30 classrooms… but someone built it sideways instead?!
Good thing our literacy activities are a LOT less confusing!

And don’t forget to keep reading Sideways Stories from Wayside School. Who knows? Maybe you’ll find a cow wandering the halls.
