Happy Summer!

Thank-you to all our families for another amazing year. Together we have supported the growth of your children in all areas.  The staff of JLPS feel privileged to have had this opportunity. As we continued to focus on improving student achievement and well being, the dedicated staff at JLPS built strong relationships with your child, providing for them an enriching and challenging curriculum. We are committed at JLPS to ensuring that all our students are part of a supportive environment and our community partners supported this through your willingness to support all our activities including, BINGO and Movie Nights, Snowflake Dance-at-thon, Spring Baskets and various other fundraising activities.  Your help has ensured that your child has current technology and literacy resources in their class each day.

As this year comes to a close we will be seeing a great deal of change in our student numbers, welcoming many new families to our community. We also have had some staff changes. Mr. Pereira is moving on to another school as he continues to build his professional capacity leading towards a position as an Administrator one day soon. We said good-bye also to Ms. Di Nardo and Ms. Mann who were here while two other of our JLPS staff were on Maternity Leave.

We would like to welcome back Mrs. Minichillo and Mrs. Pereira (nee Colussi) from their Maternity Leave and the following new staff: Mrs. Crimi, Mrs. Wong, Mrs. Tzakas, Mrs. Zenardo, Mrs. Soustos, Mr. Burge and Mrs. Lorusso.Further, I am happy to announce that Mrs. Melanie Seigel will be our new Vice Principal. She will be shared between Teston Village and ourselves. Our JLPS family keeps growing!

On behalf of the staff and students of JLPS we wish all our families a safe and happy summer and we will see you all back on Tuesday, September 4, 2018.

Congratulations to our graduating class of 2018!

Our Chicks have hatched!

Our Kindergarten students have had some fun, furry, yellow visitors at our school this week! Our eggs from Green Acres farm have finally hatched! As of this morning, we have 11 baby chicks! Students in all grades have been visiting the chicks all day and we are loving the excitement! There is a video camera on the chicks 24/7, so you can watch them from home!
