CRCT

I want to let every one know that CRCT testing has been going great. We have had perfect attendance everyday except Wednesday. Our students are working hard and I am very proud of them. Thank you teachers and parents for preparing our students for testing. I know they are doing well.

SACS Visit

Dear Parents, students, and staff,

The visit from the SACS review team went great for JBE and the Liberty County School System. The system has been recommended for accreditation and the visiting team was impress with JBE and the entire school system. Thank you for your support.

I want to thank Mr. Harley Grove and Mrs. Carol Spurlin for their leadership from the central office. Their hard work to prepare the system employees and parents for the visit paid off. We are lucky to have their expertise.

The team that visited JBE commented that this was a very safe and calm campus and it seemed everyone was happy to be a part of JBE.

Just a short reminder to our staff and parents that the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Quality Assurance Team will visit Jordye Bacon Elementary School March 1, 2011. I look forward to talking to them about the great things that are happening at JBE.

Happy Holidays

Dear students, parents, and staff,

I want to take this opportunity to express my thanks to all of you for making the first half of the school year great. We have had many exciting and fun activities and teaching and learning has been exceptional.
Please have a safe and enjoyable winter break and come back to JBE ready to begin the second half of the year.

PTO

Hello all,

Just wanted to let every one know that JBE now has a Parent Teacher Organization (PTO). Ms. Karen Carter is the President of the PTO. Ms. Carter has organized the meetings and is in the process of creating a PTO Board of Directors. I am very excited about the number of parents that have attended the meetings and volunteered to help our students through the PTO. Thursday, October 27, 2010,at 9:00 am in the gym the PTO is sponsoring an assembly to have a Hinesville police officer speak to our students about safety during fall celebrations. If you would like to offer assistance to our PTO, you can contact Ms. Carter at Jbe_president@yahoo,com.

Dear Parents,

I want to welcome you to Jordye Bacon Elementary School (JBE) and congratulate you and your child for helping JBE make the required Annual Yearly Progress (AYP) for the eighth straight year. Without your help our school could not have accomplished this milestone.
Our staff has been working hard all summer to prepare for the new school year. As always our focus is to improve the instruction of our teachers and the achievement of our students. We cannot do this without your continued help and cooperation. Please remind your child that we have high expectations concerning their academics, attendance, and their behavior.
