Sharing a fun upcoming event at Roosevelt Middle School—their International Baccalaureate Exposition on Thursday, 4/16 from 4:30–7:00 PM.

This is a really great opportunity—especially for 5th grade families—to check out Roosevelt, explore the campus, and get a feel for the programs and student experience.

There will be student showcases across campus including media arts, film screenings, animation, digital music, visual art, design, industry projects, and more.

Plus live student performances featuring Roosevelt Young Lions, Velvet Roses After-School Rock Band, Guitar Club, Into the Woods Musical Theater, and more!

Tacos will be available for purchase! All proceeds support student programming at Roosevelt.

All are welcome—bring the whole family! It’s completely FREE to attend. We'd love to see lots of Jefferson families there!

Thank you to everyone who submitted a pet pic or voted in our inaugural Pets of Jefferson Calendar!

Most of the monthly races were very close — in many cases just a handful of votes determined our 12 featured pets.

But we couldn’t bear to leave anyone out, so EVERY submission will appear on the front and back cover collage. ❤️🐾

Pre-orders are open now!
Calendars are $15 for a limited time and pre-ordering is the only way to guarantee a copy. A small number will be available for $20 once printing is complete.
