At JES, we have many blessing to be thankful for and are excited about new opportunities in 2016. I appreciate the hard work and dedication of our teachers and staff. Teaching is a calling and the JES family strives to answer that call each day. I also appreciate the continuous support and encouragement from parents and community leaders. Johnson is a special place because our community is filled with special people always willing to help others. The JES family wishes you and yours a Merry Christmas and a prosperous and healthy New Year!

JES Family and Friends,
November has been extremely busy so far and the pace will quicken as we begin the holiday season. A special thanks to the PTO and PTO Officers (Charla Harbin, Christy Gabardi, Adina Russell, and Saige Perry) for planning and hosting a successful Harvest Festival on Oct. 29. The PTO raised over $3,800. Thanks to all the volunteers and vendors for making this annual event fun and memorable for our students.
On November 10, JES students were inspired by the patriotic words of Lt. Colonel Gary DuBois during our Veteran's Day program. Twelve local veterans were recognized as 1st and 4th grade students performed patriotic songs. Thank you veterans for your service and dedication to our country. Our Veteran's Day program is a special time for our students and families.
During the week of November 16 - 20, JES will celebrate American Education Week. We invite parents and friends of Johnson to attend the district wide celebration on Monday, November 16 from 4:00 - 8:00 a.m. at the Athens-Limestone Event Center on Pryor Street next to the Veteran's Museum.
The 4th grade class will perform "America the Beautiful." JES will celebrate a local American Education Week event during our annual Thanksgiving luncheon on Friday, November 20. Please stop by the JES display near the car line entrance to see and hear about current activities at Johnson. We hope to see you at these upcoming events. Thank you for supporting our school.
