Hello JGW Community,
Lunch Recess: With the cold weather and the ground freezing with ice around our school. The months December through February pose a challenge for us getting outside for recess. We have the opportunity this year to use the gym for indoor recess. We will have a rotating schedule for all scholars to have a chance to have recess during the week. We also have set up a positive system to reward homerooms and individuals that follow our core values in the lunchroom.
ALL ABOARD–JG WHITTIER POETS POLAR EXPRESS
