Pen Pal visit day at JCMS!
5th grade classrooms at JCMS enjoyed welcoming our future 5th graders for our annual pen pal visit. Their visit included a tour of the school and donuts with their pen pals. They wrapped up their visit with a quick orientation with Mrs. Egelhoff and Mrs. Morgan. We are so exited for them to join us next year!
We look forward to meeting their parents tonight at parent orientation at 5:30 at JCMS in the cafeteria.
Parents can enter the event doors on the northwest corner or the old main doors on the east side of the building.
