Hi J.E.F Knights!
TOMORROW WEAR ORANGE, FOR UNITY DAY🧡


Welcome back! We are so excited to see all our our students and families back at school. We hope everyone was safe. We wanted to remind you of two important dates coming up this week and next. Friday, October 18th will be picture day at Ford. Students will be photographed individually in the MPR. Next week is our annual Book Character/Pumpkin Parade. Students will receive a permission slip that needs to be signed and returned to their classroom teacher in order to participate. We invite you to bring a lawn chair and join us along the road in front of the school to cheer our characters along on their walk. We are so excited to see all of our students dressed as their favorite book characters.
Another event to keep on your radar is our annual Fall Festival which will occur on November 8th. It is always held from 3:30-6:30 and we encourage all our families to join in the fun. More details will be coming soon from our PTA.
Have a wonderful day and as always, I wish you a restful evening.
Mrs. Tina

Hello John E. Ford Families,
This is Mrs. Tina with a quick notification that the school was on a brief lockout this afternoon, for about 10 minutes, due to police activity in the area. Students and staff remained safe. Again, all students and staff remained safe. The lockdown has been lifted, and we have resumed our normal day. Again, we apologize for interrupting your day, but we always want to make sure you're aware whenever we take these measures to keep students and staff safe. Thank you and have a great remainder of your day and weekend. I wish you rest!

TODAY, TODAY, TODAY! EARLY DISMISSAL.
PK Begins at 12pm

Hello J.E.F Knights! THIS Wednesday, 9/25, is OUR FIRST EARLY DISMISSAL OF THE YEAR 🥳🤩. Please keep this in mind and make arrangements for your child/children❤️


Friday we will be celebrating International Day of Peace in our classrooms. We are encouraging all students to wear white that day as our symbol of peace. We will not be holding our outside event this year as our grounds are soaked and VERY messy due to the rain, but teachers will be celebrating inside every classroom. We look forward to having our students be a part of this international event.

Please join us tomorrow, at 8:30 a.m. in the Multipurpose Room
