Welcome to the Principal’s Corner
Wow! What a busy, but festive week. Our school was a beehive of activity, but with the Christmas concerts completed, we will return to a more regular routine!
We have had a few boot/shoe mix ups with “identical or similar” looking footwear of different sizes accidentally going home with others. This is a gentle reminder for all student items to be labelled. This helps us when we are supporting students to find missing items. Thanks in advance for your support with this!
As you know, we were excited to launch the opening of our new online school spirit wear store with Lil’ Buckeroo Designs. Thank you to everyone who purchased some new Duck Gear. The store is still open and you have an option to ship to your home or do a pick up in the shop in New Sarepta. Deliveries to the school only happen when we do a school wide campaign like we just completed prior to Dec. 10. We will let you know when new items are added and when we plan to do another school wide order. Don’t miss out on your chance to get some new spirit wear. You can visit our store by clicking on this LINK. Goooo Ducks!
Have a wonderful week!

CHRISTMAS CONCERT HIGHLIGHTS
Thank you to all students and their families who came out to our Christmas concerts. It was wonderful to see so many gathered to celebrate the holiday season and to enjoy the student performances. We would like to send out an extra special THANK YOU to our music teacher, Mrs. Olson, as well as all of our students, JH volunteers, and staff who worked really hard to prepare for these presentations.

BASKETBALL NOTES
The mini-basketball teams have started their season. Please note: we will be utilizing the app Team Snap to help support communication for all of our basketball teams. Parents of these students have been sent an invite through the app.
All JH basketball teams have been added to Team Snap as well. PowerSchool permisssion forms will be available as soon as we receive scheduling information from the league. We encourage all parents/caregivers to accept their invite to TeamSnap as that will be one of the main methods of communication.
Basketball warm up shirts for all teams will be ordered in the next couple of days. This is a reminder for all parents to fill out the google form that was sent out via email through the Team Snap app. If you didn’t receive an email, please reach out to your coach.
EXTRA-CURRICULAR REMINDERS
In an effort to enhance communication around extracurricular opportunities, we have created a digital sign up for all activities as they become available. This google form is required for students to participate and to help us with our planning. Once practices begin, parents will fill out the required permission forms in PowerSchool and pay the applicable fee.
If your child is interested in participating in any extracurricular activities, please use the sign-up forms that will be posted in this section. You can access each form by clicking on the images below.
** There are currently no activity sign-ups.

HOT LUNCH
Click on the image above to order hot lunch.
The Hot Lunch Program is up and running. It runs from October to June.
Menus will be loaded into the system in groups: October to Christmas break, January to Spring break and April to the end of the school year.
The Hot Lunch online order system requires a small amount of setup time at the beginning as you must register each child you have attending our school prior to ordering.
In order for vendors to fulfill our Hot Lunch orders, we need to close ordering from 10 – 14 days in advance, therefore, please ensure that you place your Hot Lunch order before each deadline. The deadline is noted on each vendor menu.
