TA teachers:  please check in with your students, follow up daily.  If you can call or send messages home, that would be a huge help!Second:  it’s time to apply to join next year’s Jefferson Morning Announcement Team.  This is the only time of the year we accept applications.  Are you interested in helping with the Morning Announcements?  We need interested students to read the announcements on-air and to do tech jobs.  No experience is necessary—we will teach you what you need to know.  Come today and get an application.  Completed applications are due Thursday, June 5th.  Auditions will be held after school on Thursday, June 5th.  Questions? Ask us in the library or send Ms. Wall a Canvas message.
