It's time once again for our Character Pumpkin Contest! Get out the paint, paintbrushes, hot glue, and other crafting materials, and show us your artistic side. We can't wait to see what you create! Prizes will be awarded for the best pumpkin in each grade level.
Mrs. Elliott's 5th grade math classes read the book Spookley the Square Pumpkin and then made square and rectangular pumpkins. Each student had to calculate the volume of their rectangular pumpkin.
Every year we look forward to participating in the Coast Fest Art Contest in Brunswick and start working on our artwork the first week of school. This year unfortunately they canceled the contest right before the entries were due. With all this beautiful coast inspired art Mrs. Poppell, the art teacher, decided to have our own virtual JES Coast Fest Art Contest. Jesup Elementary Teachers and others from the Board of Education voted virtually and one winner was chosen for each grade level. The following students won for their grade level:
Kindergarten: Norah Tighe
1st Grade: Genevieve Bentley
2nd Grade: Karizma Hardy
3rd Grade: Caryonna Lewis
4th Grade: Gabriel Ramirez
5th Grade: Tucker Cullen
October is looking like it's going to be a great month! Read the school newsletter to keep up to date on all the activities.
