WELCOME TO JEFFERSON: Beginning 2009-2010

Over the years, we have tried different times for our new school year Open House. For the past few years, Open House has been scheduled before the school year started.

This early date was difficult for staff to prepare for sufficiently. Therefore, with the intent of being completely ready for such an important event, we have moved it to the first week of school.
We will be pleased to see you there!

2009 - 2010 OPEN HOUSE:
Thursday, September 10, 2009 
4:30pm to 6:30pm.
 

The student placement process for 2009-2010 closed on May 29, 2009. Your information will be combined with other data to help us balance learning-environments at each grade level.

This placement process is finalized in August to give the school an opportunity to adjust for any summer surprises. Sometimes a class count has an unexpected surge in numbers or a state budget impact requires some shifting. By finalizing in August, we hope to provide the most productive and positive learning-environment for our students.

In the past couple of years, student placements have been announced at Open House prior to the start of school. Because Open House is scheduled for the first week of school, classroom placements will be available Thursday, August 27th. For your convenience, lists will be posted on the front doors of the school or in the school foyer.

Since Open House will only be two weeks away, classrooms will not be open to visit at that time.



2009-2010 CALENDAR


You'll find the 2009 - 2010 calendar on the MVSD website as soon as it is finalized

PLAN AHEAD:  2009 - 2010 school year begins on Thursday, September 3rd.


REQUIRED VACCINATIONS

Washington State Law requires that all students entering 6th grade provide evidence that they have received a Tdap (Tetanus booster) after their 11th birthday.  Students entering the 6th grade also need to show evidence that they have received TWO Varicella (Chicken Pox) vaccines.  Any student who has not provided evidence of these vaccinations will not be allowed to attend 6th grade.

Please check with your child's health care provider to obtain your child's immunization dates or to schedule an appointment for your child to receive these vaccines.
