Leadership starts with taking care of the people who take care of our schools. 🧹✨
Yesterday our JCS Custodial Services Leaders spent some time at their Leadership Academy focusing on something incredibly important: mental health and stress management.

Huge thanks to our leaders for showing up for themselves and each other! 👏💪

JCS Secondary Math teachers growing their practices!
Today we’re celebrating National School Resource Officer (SRO) Appreciation Day — and the incredible individuals who help keep our schools safe, supported, and connected.
Our School Resource Officers are more than a badge. They are mentors, protectors, educators, and trusted adults our students can count on every single day. From morning high-fives and classroom safety lessons to quiet conversations when a student needs someone to listen, their impact reaches far beyond the hallways.
👮 Why we’re grateful for our SROs:
Safety First: They help create secure learning environments where students and staff can thrive.
Mentorship: They build meaningful relationships and guide students through challenges.
Daily Impact: They work tirelessly to ensure every child feels seen, heard, and safe.
Thank you to our SROs for being steady, positive forces in our schools. You don’t just patrol our halls — you help shape the future within them. 💙
