Jefferson Elementary is home to a highly qualified and dedicated staff. Each and every person at this school site is committed to the safety, wellbeing, and success of our students. This form is a simple way to drop a note of appreciation for one of these unsung heroes. Whether you work here and it's a colleague that helped you out, taught you something new, or went above and beyond for our school. Or, you are a parent that a staff member has been flexible, accommodating, went the extra mile to help, or has been a beacon of positivity in your child's day. Please take a moment to let that person know the impact that they have made whether big or small. Thank you!
We are excited to announce that we adopted a new form of school-to-home communication at Jefferson Elementary School called ParentSquare.
ParentSquare
This unified communications platform is designed to keep parents and guardians informed and encourage greater engagement and connection with your school and the district. It provides a safe way for the district, schools, and parents to:
- Send and receive district and school information
- Share pictures and files
- See calendar items
- Sign up to volunteer
- Schedule parent-teacher conferences
- and much more... all in one centralized place!
The Parent Involvement Plan is a collaborative project designed to enhance the techniques used to support our students in achieving positive outcomes during their time in school. Specific dates will follow, however the projected topics and dates are below. Meetings will generally be on the third Thursday of the month. We hope to see you there.

MIGRANT EDUCATION PROGRAM FAMILY MATH NIGHT
Jefferson will be hosting the Migrant Education Family Math Night on Thursday, October 12th. After a brief discussion on resources available to parents, members of the Migrant Education Staff will show parents and students how to make a cool Math Concept Development Activity that they can take home and either recreate to support math skills or use at home for fun while learning math.
If you have questions please contact the school office at 763-4236.
Migrant Education is an important program at our school. Let the student's school office know if you think your family is eligible and they can set up an appointment to enroll you.
TCSD offers a comprehensive Migrant Education Program that includes an Extended Day, Pre-Kindergarten, and Summer School. These aspects of the program complement the district's planned events that provide opportunities for students and parents to build capacity for extending learning.
For students, the district includes field trips to universities and places where connections may be made and learned skills applied, Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics (STEAM) events, and other resources/services.
For parents, the Migrant Education Program provides a Parent Advisory Committee, Family ELA and Math Nights, and various other parent trainings throughout our County Region that create access to services and education.
