β¨ 6th Grade Shark Tank: Innovation in Action! β¨
Our amazing 6th grade students recently stepped into the world of entrepreneurship with their very own Shark Tank project! Each team was challenged to invent or innovate a product, then take it through the entire business processβfrom designing and advertising, to marketing and finally pitching their ideas to potential investors.
Students showcased impressive creativity, collaboration, and communication skills as they brought their business ideas to life. From catchy slogans to clever marketing strategies, their work reflected both imagination and real-world thinking.
π Weβre so proud of these future innovators and leaders. The next big idea might just be coming from our 6th grade classroom!

π§π Our second-grade Roadrunners took part in a powerful Water Wise activity focused on global water awareness!

This hands-on experience was a meaningful and memorable way to connect classroom learning with real-world issues. π

πβ¨ Guest Reader Spotlight!
Students recently had the chance to use their PBIS points to purchase a special experienceβbecoming a Guest Reader!
This time, Ms. Elson shared Smart Cookie with our second graders. In this heartwarming story, a little cookie feels unsure of her smarts while surrounded by clever cupcakes and brilliant rolls. But with a sprinkle of confidence and a dash of creativity, she learns that being smart isnβt just about perfect scoresβitβs about believing in yourself. π‘πͺ
Way to go, Ms. Elson, and great job to all our Roadrunners making the most of their PBIS points! π #PBISinAction #RoadrunnerReaders #SmartCookie #SVUSDShines #EmpoweringYou #SVUSDProudARatedDistrict

πΎβ¨ Future Coyotes in the House! β¨πΎ
Last week, JCMS was thrilled to welcome all SVUSD 6th graders to campus for an exciting preview of middle school life! π
Our visiting students were greeted with a warm welcome from the JCMS Band and Student Council, followed by an introduction from Assistant Principal Pizutto and Principal Wright. They got a sneak peek at all the fun, learning opportunities, sports, and activities that await them next year! πΆππ
Student Council led small group tours across campus, giving 6th graders a chance to ask questions, learn the layout, and hear straight from current students about what to expect. It was a great day for peer-to-peer connectionβbecause sometimes itβs easier to ask someone who's been there! π
Weβre excited to have them join the pack soonβbecause thereβs a lot of fun and learning ahead at JCMS! ππΊ

π Earth Day Birdhouses: A Creative STEAM Project with 2nd and 4th Graders! π¦π
In honor of Earth Day, our 2nd and 4th-grade students teamed up for a fun and environmentally-conscious STEAM project: creating birdhouses from recycled milk cartons! π±β¨
Students took milk cartons from the cafeteria that would have been thrown away and transformed them into beautiful, functional homes for our feathered friends. They also got creative by using leftover art supplies and other materials, turning what might have been waste into something wonderful!
This hands-on project not only allowed students to flex their artistic muscles, but also helped them understand the importance of recycling and sustainability. They learned that even the smallest materials can have a big impact on the planet!
And to top off their Earth Day celebration, they enjoyed a fun treat: "dirt" cups with Oreos and gummy worms! πͺπͺ± A sweet ending to a day full of creativity and learning!
A huge shoutout to all the students for their hard work, creativity, and dedication to making the Earth a little greener. ππ
