Sometimes it’s the simple things that make the biggest difference.

A consistent routine, a little planning ahead, and staying connected with your child’s school can help set the tone for a strong day of learning.

Those small habits add up—together, let's help students show up On Time, go All In, and keep the momentum going all the way to an Unstoppable fourth quarter!

At JBE, our teachers are always learning and growing right alongside our students. 💙💛

During a recent professional learning session connected to the Marzano instructional framework, our team explored ways to strengthen student thinking, increase engagement, and continue refining instructional practices that support strong learning in every classroom.

This is what makes JBE so special. Our teachers are not only amazing educators, they are incredible learners who are always looking for ways to grow for their students.

A special shoutout to our teacher leaders, Amanda Shadinger and Jennifer Ventriglia, who collaborated with Principal Smith to facilitate the conversation and guide the learning.

We are so proud of our JBE team and their commitment to continuous learning and growth for our students. 💙💛

Mrs. Clark’s 2nd graders became historians! 📚 Students created their own primary sources by interviewing a classmate, writing about artifacts that represent them, and completing a diary entry describing their morning. It was a fun way to learn how historians use personal stories and objects to understand the past. Great work, young historians! ✨

The students in Mrs. McIntyre’s first-grade class put their sentence building and expository writing skills to the test by explaining the steps for making a PB&J sandwich. 🥪

We followed their exact instructions… and let’s just say we had a lot of fun along the way! It quickly became clear how important good details are when giving directions. Great writing leads to great sandwiches!

Our 5th grade students had a special visit from the Stuart Middle School Band! 🎶

The talented SMS band students gave a fantastic performance and shared a little about what it’s like to be part of the band program in middle school. It was a fun and inspiring experience for our students as they begin thinking about the exciting opportunities waiting for them next year. Students heading to middle school will have the option to join band, and this performance gave them a great glimpse into what that experience can look like.

A big thank you to their band director, Ms. Roberts, for bringing the band to JBE, and a shoutout to our own music teacher, Mr. Skrobinski, who even joined in on the trombone! 🎺

We appreciate the Stuart Middle School band for sharing their music with our Vikings! 🧡💙

Our JBE students recently took time to reflect on our nation’s history and Florida’s role in shaping it by participating in the America 250FL Art Contest.

As part of the project, students explored how Florida contributes to our country in many ways, from space exploration and agriculture to tourism, military training, innovation, and environmental stewardship.

💰 Math is making cents in Ms. Creager’s classroom! 💰 Ms. Creager’s first graders have been busy learning how to identify coins and tell their values. Students practiced recognizing pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters while counting and adding them together. Through hands-on activities and games, our young mathematicians are building important money skills and confidence with numbers! Great job to these first graders for working hard and making every “cent” count! 👏🪙

Our teachers spent our early release day learning strategies to strengthen explicit instruction and increase opportunities for student response (OTRs) with support from district literacy specialist Courtney Beard.

The focus was on keeping students actively thinking, participating, and engaged in their learning. After the training, teams jumped into planning how they’ll bring these strategies into their classrooms.

A big shoutout to our teachers for always being willing to learn, grow, and find new ways to support our Vikings. We’re excited to see these ideas in action! 💙💛
