Dress Days - February 27th through May 3rd


On March 2, 2023 Jesse Owens Elementary will celebrate
Dr. Seuss's Birthday with Read Across America Day! We are asking people from the community to come to our school and share a book with our students. We want to make life long readers of our students, and what better way to do this than giving them an example of community leaders who read. Please consider this request and send a representative of your business to read to the children!
We will begin this celebration at 8:30 AM and end it at 2:30. Please make an effort to participate in some way. Please RSVP by email to Mrs. Jaime Romero with time and number of readers at jaimee.romero@vpsb.net or call 337-536-6541 by Tuesday,
February 28, 2023.

Every day in the US, 1200 new kids enter the foster care system. Youth in foster care typically don’t have many possessions that are theirs, and they are given a garbage bag to transport what few items they have. JOES Beta club is partnering with an organization called Together We Rise, to help provide these children with a duffel bag, instead of a garbage bag. These bags will be filled with comfort items, such as a teddy bear and blanket, and decorated by our Beta members. We will then donate them to our local foster care coordinators to distribute to foster kids in our area. Please consider donating to our efforts, no amount is too small.
