☀️Last Day of School!☀️

World Changers, it was an honor to grow with you this year. This year held a number of challenges, but we became better because of them. Together we bloom, and it was a joy to grow together! Have a safe summer, and we will see you in August!

Enjoy these field day pics! Please feel free to comment any fun photos you might have taken at the event as well. :)

🚲Let's ride!🚲

In case you didn't already know... we have a really cool after-school club that our 5th graders can sign up to join, where they learn proper cycling etiquette in real time by riding bikes together. When they complete their training at the end of the year, they are awarded brand new bikes for free!

What club is this, might you ask? It's Bike Club, of course! They've been a long standing club at JHF and many other schools for years. It's always a joy to see them enriching our scholars' lives. Thank you again, Bike Club!

🎓5th grade...🎓

You did it! Congratulations to our promoting 5th graders! We got to celebrate them yesterday with a beautiful ceremony where one of their own, Tou Xiong, got to speak. Right after, Coach Watkins from Monroe Demonstration Academy gave a compelling speech to our 5th graders on the importance of staying focused and prioritizing their learning when moving up to middle school. Afterward, Ms. Roode walked everyone down memory lane from this year all the way back to when our 5th graders were little. Cake was had after, where families and scholars got to chat and take photos to commemorate this milestone.

Congratulations, 5th grade!

🎓Pre-K & Kindergarten Promotion!🎓

It's finally here! 🥹 Our littles are growing! Yesterday, we celebrated our scholars in Pre-K and Kinder for promoting to the next grade up. They were all smiles during the ceremony. SO many families showed up for their little learners. We thank all of our families for making an appearance and supporting our scholars, whether they're yours or not. Every kiddo had applause when they were called up. Thank you so much! Congratulations, World Changers! 🎉

Success Week, final post! 🌍🎉

Students with zero behavioral referrals got to enjoy a fun party with games. We didn't get all the photos, but do enjoy the photos we DID get for our kiddos who have shown good behavior all year long. Way to go, World Changers!
