Greetings SJLES Families,
Ms. Coleman, our staff, and I hope you all had a fantastic Spring Break! Our students have returned from the break in great spirits. Ms. Coleman and I interrupted SEL this morning to share how our students’ happy faces and engagement with our staff and their learning caught our attention since we returned. To celebrate our happy kids we will have double Spot-O-Gram days throughout the remainder of the week. I think the time away served us all well and we look forward to finishing this school year strong!
I want to uplift three opportunities for our families to share insights and feedback to help inform our planning and preparation for the 2022-2023 school year. In other words, we are giving you some homework! Please know that uplifting your voice is critically important and necessary in helping SJLES shape an accessible and rigorous instructional program and an inclusive and engaging school culture. Please let me know if you have any questions regarding your homework assignments and thank you for your time, insights, and continued partnership!
Sincerely,
Dan Notari
SJLES Principal

SJLES Student Expectations Survey
Our SJLES staff is so proud of our Jaguars! Our students consistently demonstrate outstanding behaviors and traits within our school building and throughout our community. We here at SJLES are grateful to our families for our collaborative partnership. This partnership helps our Jaguars learn the skills, knowledge, and confidence to positively influence our larger community today and prepares them for rewarding employment in the dynamic, international workplace they will be leading once they leave the comforts of HCPSS years from now.
Our SJLES student expectations are at the core of our instruction, social emotional learning, and our school climate and culture. Our current expectations are Respectful, Responsible, & Ready to Learn. In order to ensure that these guiding principles best serve our current and future Jaguars we are seeking input from our SJLES staff, students, families, and other community stakeholders.
Please consider completing this brief SJLES Student Expectations Survey by Friday, May 6th, to help shape our approach to assuring the academic success and social-emotional well-being of each SJLES Jaguar going forward. We appreciate your time, insights, and partnership. Thank you!

Parent Input Form For Students Attending SJLES Next Year
As part of our planning and preparation for 2022-2023, we would like to provide the opportunity to share insights you would like us to consider as we begin the articulation process. This input form is for you, as parents, to relate specific information about your child that you feel would be useful as our staff collaborates to create next year's classes. Our goal of this process is to build heterogeneous classes which foster the academic success and social-emotional well-being of each student in an inclusive and nurturing environment that closes opportunity gaps. Please consider completing our SJLES Parent Input Form 2022-2023 by May 27th to provide us with useful insights regarding your Jaguar(s).
