Hello EJMS families and friends -
We hope that all of our Jaguar families are doing well after the storm this weekend with minimal tree and water damage and restored power as you're reading this. The NTI day did cause some rescheduling, so take note of that in this week's newsletter. Among other things, the Snowie Ice fundraiser has moved to Thursday and the Family Celebration Night will now be on Tues. Oct. 15 rather than this week. Check out those new plans and other events and happenings this week and beyond in the final Jaugar Weekly before fall break. We'll be back with a newsletter again in two weeks.
