Kinders engaged in peep exploration where they learned about adjectives and worked together to describe their peeps. It was a delicious writing activity! 🐥
Staff Appreciation Week 2025
May 5th-May 9th!
Please join us in celebrating our amazing Johnson staff. Help is needed from our wonderful Jaguar families to purchase goodies, which will be placed in the teacher's lounge throughout the week as grab-and-go snack items. As in years past, the PTA is also organizing a giveaway for all faculty members to receive something special. We are looking for donations of gift cards of at least $5, but if it is in your budget to buy them in higher denominations, or multiple $5 cards, that is always welcome too! If you have a physical item that you'd like to donate in addition, please send us an email at ptajohnsonelem@gmail.com so we can make arrangements. Donations can be dropped off in the office starting April 1st through April 30th. Please label items "Staff Appreciation Week, PTA". THANK YOU!

What's cooking in Johnson's Tech Lab?
Pizza! Third graders are using the iPads and an interactive system called Osmo to play "Pizza Incorporated", a game in which they run a pizzeria. Students use special manipulatives to interact with the iPad. They need to take orders and make specific pizzas, then create proper change when the customers are ready to leave. Mr. Mauller says they are having a blast!

Winter Outdoor Recess Reminders! :)
Please remember that you must send your students to school with the proper cold weather gear. A heavy coat, Gloves, hats, and snow pants. If a student doesn't have boots or snow pants, they will be told that they have to stay on the blacktop areas of the playground. We do have a small selection of coats and boots that can be borrowed for that recess, but we can't always guarantee that there will be something available for them to wear. Those items MUST be returned after the recess is over. It is important that they remember their things from home.
Students will be expected to go outside for recess unless the wind chill is 0 degrees or lower. They will then have indoor recess.
A Doctors note must be provided in cases where the student is not able to go outside. We cannot accept letters from parents. It must be from a Dr.
Thank you for your help and support!
Happy (late) New Year! Our jags are excited for 2025! We're looking forward to a new year full of growth and fun ❤️🐾
