Jefferson second graders in Mrs. Hiscox’s class became hands-on mathematicians as they explored geometry through engaging, interactive activities. Students played “Bump”, a fun math game that encouraged them to practice their skills while learning alongside their classmates.

Jefferson Primary School was filled with excitement as our kindergarten students celebrated the fall season at our annual Kindergarten Harvest Festival today. This special event was a wonderful example of collaboration among our PTA, teachers, and staff, who worked together to create a memorable experience for our youngest Jaguars.

During Hispanic Heritage month third grade students have been learning about Sonia Sotomayor, the first Hispanic Supreme Court Justice in Library class with Ms. Dooher. The Library teacher read the book Just Ask, written by Justice Sonia Sotomayor, and discussed how our differences make us stronger as a class. T

Jefferson second graders in Ms. Russell and Ms. Bifulco’s class stepped into the role of “literary detectives” as they explored an important reading skill: inferencing. Their teachers explained that inferencing means making a “smart guess” by combining what we already know with clues from a text to uncover information the author doesn’t state directly.

Learning can happen in many different ways, and third-grade students in Ms. Pfeiffer’s classroom at Jefferson Primary School are embracing every opportunity to learn, grow, and succeed!
