St. Patrick’s Day festivities at JAMP
Green food each period + activities including how to catch a Leprechaun. We love celebrating the holidays with our kiddo’s!

Ms. Pham’s class is left in sugar shock!!! In health, we have been exploring how to read nutrition labels. Today we focused on looking for the amount of hidden sugar in some popular drinks. Can you believe the grams of sugar found in these drinks?!?
Make-Up Snow Days!
There will be all day instruction on March 15th and March 19th! These originally were days off but we will be using them as our make-up snow days.
Thankful for our social workers! Happy Social Work Month!
Congratulations to Mr. Hueston celebrating his 13 year anniversary with Joseph Academy.
Using Starbursts, Ms Pham's class performed this amazing experiment! Students demonstrated their understanding of the rock cycle. Students were able to see the formation of sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rock using heat and pressure!
Ms. Pham's class has been exploring artists and art from the Pop Art movement. Our class had such a fun time creating these Keith Haring inspired life-size pieces.
Our students were so excited for a surprise activity day! We spent the morning doing an all school bingo, followed by different activities, an all school pizza lunch, and an afternoon with school wide s’mores. We love our JAMP kiddo’s!
The JAMP family is celebrating today! Ms. Pham is a finalist for the Golden Apple Award and we could not be more proud! Congratulations to her for a job well done!
