JCMS wrapped up our 6th Annual *One Book, One School* event on Friday, April 24—and what an incredible experience it was!
In just two days, all students and staff came together to read *Alone* by Megan Freeman. Classrooms dove into meaningful extension activities, and 23 students were selected for our VIP Book Club, where they read the companion novel *Away*.
We were honored to welcome Megan Freeman to JCMS. She began the day by participating in our career fair, speaking with small groups of aspiring authors, followed by a special VIP lunch, engaging presentations for each grade level, and a book-signing to end the day.
It was a powerful celebration of reading, connection, and community—one story bringing us all together. 📚
