This new space will serve as a lasting tribute to Malin and a place where students can gather, learn and celebrate the spirit of our school community. Thank you to the many, many people who made it all possible. We are grateful for your support!

Dear Jefferson Families,
Your child should have a Square1 Art form in their backpack or homework folder.
Please take a moment to look at the work they have created. The form includes free stickers with your child's art printed on it. This is a great way to give personalized gifts this season and raise money for your Jefferson Art program.
All orders are due by Monday, December 16th
if you have any questions feel free to contact your Art teacher at elizabeth.morris@lrsd.org or classroom phone after 2PM 501-447-5049
