Mother/Son Dodgeball!
Give us a call!
Last night, the City of Jonesville awarded citizen of the year to three former Jonesville School alum: Dr. Leising, former teacher and current volunteer at WES, and Hayden James and Carson Laney who are 2020 graduates. Their stories of gratitude and service was a model of what the award is about. Though I did not have the pleasure of knowing the two graduates, it was clear the reason they were awarded youth citizens of the year. Congratulations and Go Comets!
Spring Book Fair!
From Williams Elementary School:
Thank you to the 40+ volunteers who helped to make Project R.E.D. (Rural Education Day) a huge success! All 4th grade students went to the fairgrounds last Thursday for this amazing experience.
Congratulations to our March Student of the Month recipients!
These students were nominated by a staff member for being respectful. This quality is something that will help them throughout their lifetime. We are so proud of them!

We want to give a huge thanks to Johnathan Rand, Author of the Michigan Chillers Series and the American Chillers Series for coming in and speaking with our students today. He talked about why reading and writing is so important and how he became an author and the process of becoming an author. The kids had a great time listening to him!
From Williams Elementary School:
Students in the Fifth Grade S.T.E.M. Club worked with Mrs. Warner and Dr. Leising and recently completed their Michigan bird houses after studying their habitats and creating a natural nesting structure.
Next up, investigating space and creating a model ROCKET!
We have been overwhelmed with shed requests!! The JCS community is awesome!! Thanks to so many of you who have expressed interest in supporting our Trades classes. At this time we have more than 20 requests for sheds!! I wish we had the time to build them all. Hopefully, you will have more opportunities to support our program. Our students are excited to build stuff. Next year we hope to have more students who want to do that. But at this time we are at our limit (and then some). The pricing comes down to materials and discussions with the client on what they feels is a fair price. Thanks! Go Comets!
There is still time to set up an appointment for tomorrow or Friday! Give us a call to get signed up! We are so excited to see our future Comets the next couple of days!
From Williams Elementary School:
Mrs. Snyder's class spent all last week researching a Michigan product: Faygo pop, Better Made chips, Hudsonville Ice Cream, Jiffy, McClure's Pickles, and Kellogg's cereal. Friday the students then presented their product to the class. and today they celebrated their research by eating these Michigan made products.
The National Cherry Festival director also sent a care package to Mrs. Snyder's class. The box of goodies included: Great Lakes Potato Chips, Sleeping Bear Farms honey, dried chocolate covered cherries, tart cherry juice, Cherry Festival Preserves, dried cherries, and official National Cherry Festival pins!
From Williams Elementary:
Dr. Distributive visited Mrs. Snyder's class from the Array Hospital on Wednesday this week. Students were suited up with surgical gowns, surgical gloves, and were able to pick a surgical utensil.
Students were given patients like "Amy Addition" and "Matthew Multiplication". These patients had problems like 7 x 8 that the students had to use the distributive property to solve. The students did a wonderful job with their patients.
Reminder!
We have a few tickets left for Purse Bingo next weekend! If you are interested, contact Brittany Nash in the elementary office!
Kindergarten Registration is next week! Be sure to call and make an appointment!

It was brought to our attention that the link that was recently shared to order a yearbook was incorrect. Here is the correct link:

We apologize for the confusion.
Good evening Comet families! This is just a reminder that tomorrow Friday, March 10th is a half day for all students. Please make arrangements accordingly. Have a good night and go Comets!
Just recently our day time custodian, Mr. Jeff had to have back surgery. When we started letting the kids know that he would need to take some time off to heal they were very sad and started missing him instantly. Mr. Jeff is wonderful with all of our students. He always greets the students with a smile, fist bump, high five or a hug. I share this picture today in honor of him. In this photo Mrs. Jenkins class made him a card for every day he will be gone! Wow! We miss him, and wish him a fast recovery. He makes a difference in so many lives daily. Thanks Mr. Jeff!
