Dear Jefferson Families,
WOW! All of our students that entered artwork for our art showcase did such a remarkable job. If you have not had a chance to check out the masterpieces, come to the library after school and take a peek. Jefferson School will choose art pieces from each grade level and enter them to the Haggin Art Museum for the 87th Annual McKee Student Art Exhibit. This is the longest running student art exhibition in the country! The museum will have approximately 1000 pieces of art from teachers around the area. The art will be on display at the Haggin Museum, in Stockton, from March 22 through May 1, with an opening reception on Sunday, March 25 from 1:30 – 3:00. For more information regarding the McKee Student Art Contest, visit the Haggin Museum website at http://hagginmuseum.org/exhibitions/87thAnnualMcKeeStudentArtContestExhibition.
Want some ideas for art projects at home? Mrs. Gleason had several simple art projects available for students and families to participate in at our showcase last week. These are simple projects that involve very few readily available items. I encourage you to try them at home.
Pipe Cleaners: Use pipe cleaners to create finger puppets and make up stories, or create letters to spell words. You name it, you can create it with pipe cleaners
Art with Toothpicks: Use an everyday item and create 2D and 3D masterpieces. Use toothpicks, along with marshmallows or gumdrops, attach them together and start building. See who can make the tallest tower with the least amount of items. Or, grab a piece of paper and glue, and create a 2D toothpick art piece by breaking the toothpicks and carefully gluing them next to each other on a sheet of paper.
Scratch Art: You will need to purchase scratchboard for this project but you can easily find it and it is inexpensive. This is a black-and-white drawing medium in which the board has a thin coating. You can use any sharp item to etch art into the scratchboard. This is a fun one… and a must try!
Report cards will be mailed home this Wednesday, March 7.
Thank you for your continued support, communication, and taking the time to read the Jefferson newsletter. Feel free to contact me at any time at [email protected] or (209) 835-3053 with any questions, comments, or suggestions.
Sincerely,
Alyssa Wooten, Principal

Queridas familias, Jefferson
WOW! Todos nuestros alumnos que ingresaron ilustraciones para nuestro escaparate de arte hicieron un trabajo notable. Si usted no ha tenido la oportunidad de ver las obras maestras, vengan a la biblioteca después de la escuela y echen un vistazo. Jefferson va a escoger piezas de arte de cada nivel de grado y las entrara a la exposición anual de arte estudiantil Mckee del Museo de Arte Haggin. Este es la exposición estudiantil de arte, que ha corrido más larga que cualquier otra en el país! El museo contará con aproximadamente 1000 obras de arte de maestros de alrededor de la área. El arte se exhibirá en el Museo Haggin, en Stockton, a partir del 22 de marzo al 1 de mayo, con una recepción de inauguración el domingo, 25 de marzo de 1:30 - 3:00. Para obtener más información sobre el concurso de arte estudiantil McKee, visite el sitio web del Museo Haggin en http://hagginmuseum.org/exhibitions/87thAnnualMcKeeStudentArtContestExhibition.
Desea algunas ideas para proyectos de arte en casa? La Sra. Gleason tuvo varios proyectos de artes sencillos y disponibles para estudiantes y familias que participaron en nuestro escaparate de la semana pasada. Estos son simples proyectos que involucran muy pocos elementos disponibles. Yo los animo a probarlas en casa.
Limpiadores de tuberías: use limpiadores de pipa para crear títeres para los dedos y crear historias, o crear letras para deletrear palabras. Usted lo nombra, puede crearlo con limpiapipas
Arte con palillos de dientes: use un objeto de todos los días y cree obras maestras en 2D y 3D. Use mondadientes, junto con malvaviscos o gomitas, conéctelos y comience a construir. Vea quién puede hacer la torre más alta con la menor cantidad de elementos. O bien, agarre un trozo de papel y pegue, y cree una pieza de arte en forma de palillo de dientes 2D rompiendo los palillos de dientes y pegándolos cuidadosamente uno al lado del otro en una hoja de papel.
Arte rallador: Usted necesitará adquirir un rallador para este proyecto, pero usted lo puede encontrar fácilmente y es barato. Este es un blanco y negro medio de dibujo en la que la junta tiene una capa delgada. Puede utilizar cualquier elemento afilado para montar su arte en el rallador Este es divertido… y debe de probar!
Tarjetas de informe serán enviadas a casa este miércoles, 7 de marzo. Únase a nosotros para la reunión MJPFA de Jefferson este jueves, 8 de marzo a las 3:15 en el gimnasio.
Gracias por su continuo apoyo, comunicación, y por tomar el tiempo para leer el boletín de Jefferson. No dude en ponerse en contacto conmigo en cualquier momento a [email protected] o (209) 835-3053 con cualquier pregunta, comentarios o sugerencias.

2018-2019 DATES
The importance of daily school attendance must start at home, stressing the value of a consistent educational experience. It is vital for the Jefferson School District to build on this value, maintaining an essential partnership between school and home, to ensure punctual daily school attendance is a priority. Absent work completed at home is not a sufficient substitute for the quality instructions received while present in class. Should your child need to be absent, California Education Code allows EXCUSED absences for the following reasons: Illness Medical/Dental Appointment Quarantine Funeral of Family Member To spend time with student’s immediate family member who is an active duty member of the
uniformed services. Participation in religious exercise
Please call the school at 209-835-3053 if your child is absent for ANY REASON.
The parent/guardian of the student must phone or send a note to clear any of these excused absences. The answering machine is activated after school hours for your convenience, and is checked at the start of the next school day. Failure to excuse your students’ absence will result in a recorded truancy on the student’s permanent record. Being absent for any of the following reasons will result in an UNEXCUSED absence: Personal Days Car Trouble Going shopping Vacation Visiting Relatives Family moving from one home to Student’s Birthday another Oversleeping Cutting school Childcare by the student at home
Education Code 4820: Students shall be classified as truant if absent from school without a valid excuse three full days in one school year, or tardy or absent for more than any 30-minute period during the school day without a valid excuse on three occasions in one school year, or any combination thereof. Such students shall be reported to the Superintendent or designee. (Education Code 48260)
If a student misses two (2) days of school per month, they are missing over 10% of
their school year.
