In honor of National School Psychology Week, Jersey 100 would like to recognize the important work our school psychologists do to help our students thrive.
Mrs. Elliott-Alexander has over ten years of experience as a school psychologist in our district and is passionate about the students and families in Jersey 100. She consults with teachers, families, and outside agencies to improve student learning and behavior. She is a strong team member and addition to the RTI process and always brings ideas to support student success. Mrs. Elliott-Alexander approaches problems and concerns with an open mind. She is an asset to our Jersey 100 family.

JCHS – Last week students from all Spanish classes studied Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, a Spanish celebration of life and death. Part of the tradition is to celebrate with food, so our students headed to the kitchen for a hands-on lesson on how to make homemade tortillas, refried black beans and fried plantain chips! The kitchen was filled with lots of laughs, lots of yums and a few yucks! Fun was had by all! Thank you Miss Kallal, Mrs. Dwyer and Mrs. Rojas!
Another class at West Elementary has already read 100 books!!! Congrats to Mrs. Beauchamp's class--keep up the awesome reading!
JCMS 5th Grade ELA:
Students in Ms. Herkert’s 5th grade English Language Arts classes wrote narrative spooky stories this week! They wrote rough drafts, peer edited, and conferenced with their teacher to perfect their work. Finally, they shared their stories with the collaborative support of their peers!
JCMS Science:
Students in Mrs. Shalley’s 6th grade Science classes learned about Tectonic Plate Boundaries today by building models with Oreos!
Halloween Fun at West Elementary!!! I'm not sure who had more fun today--our staff or our students!!!

Students in Ms. Wieneke’s 5th Grade Science classes built towers and tested them with the weight of pumpkins!
NATIONAL PRINCIPAL APPRECIATION MONTH… Each day this week for National Principal Appreciation Month, we will recognize our Jersey 100 Principals with some kind words from their staff!
Cory Breden –
Mr. Breden is a great principal for JCHS. He really cares about the students and staff. He has gone above and beyond to make our school a safe and welcoming place for staff and for students. --Genevieve Mossman
Mr. Breden works diligently to ensure that our students are successful; consequently, every decision he makes considers what is in the best interest of our students. I appreciate that he sets yearly goals for himself and encourages his staff to openly communicate with him. -–Beth Morgan
Mr. Breden is a born leader. He embodies the key characteristics that every teacher hopes their principal will possess. He is deliberative in his decisions--never hasty or "knee jerk". At the same time, he never shirks his responsibility to make the decisions that MUST be made for our school to improve with each passing day. Every decision that he makes is rooted in the philosophy: "What is best for our students at JCHS?" This sounds obvious, but it's not. Principals have so many factors to consider, and over time, it's very easy to lose focus on that central theme. Mr. Breden has never lost that focus. --Ben Gracey
Thank you, Jersey 100, for showing your appreciation and support of all of our Principals! #GoJerseyPanthers #WhereKidsComeFirst
