Our preschool class had a wonderful guest reader today - the amazing Carol Hougland! 😊 Since our students are learning all about birds and their habitats, Carol read two delightful stories: one about animal friendships and another about an owl learning to fly and its home. 🦉 What made it even more special is that Carol has been a part of the Jordan staff for nearly 35 years!

Our amazing kindergarteners are building community, literally! 🌱 After learning about neighborhoods in reading and life cycles in science, they designed and created their own mini-neighborhoods, complete with front yards, grass, and flower gardens. They've been busy little caretakers, watering and soaking up the sun! ❤️

Happy Earth Day! 🌎 In honor of Earth Day, the Jordan EarlyAct Club has entered Jordan Catholic School in the Clean Earth Challenge! 🏆 The goal of the challenge is to eliminate one million items of trash in our communities, parks, schools, and shorelines. 🌳 Throughout this week, we are asking all students to go out with their families to pick up trash from your neighborhoods, local parks, roadsides, or even down along our area rivers. 🏞️ Every item collected counts, and no amount is too little. 👍 Once you’ve collected trash, we are asking families to get online to let us know how many pieces of trash you collected. ➡️ https://www.jordanschool.com/page/cleanearthchallenge Good luck cleaning up our community, and thanks for your participation in the Clean Earth Challenge! 😊 Let's make a difference! ✨
