Since returning from spring break, there have been some changes happening here at Jeffers. The first and most obvious is change brought about by the construction company that will be building our fabulous new school! A ground breaking ceremony was held on Tuesday and the whole school was invited. We got hard hats, had our picture taken in the GH Tribune, and everything!
We've also begun seeing a lot more dads at school lately.
