Congratulations to Ms. Davita for a well-earned retirement! 👏🏼 Our Jack community appreciates all you have done for our school and we will miss you! 🙏🏼

After 11.5 years as the Wellness Program Specialist, it is time to say good bye as I retire June 30. I have spent 44 years in education, hoping to make a difference every day. It has been a pleasure working with so many staff members and community partners, but not something I have taken lightly, since we are one of only a handful of school districts that has a dedicated position for wellness. Thank you to our executive leadership team, school board and insurance trust board for recognizing how important it is to take care of our staff, so they can take care of our students and programs. We have built an award-winning wellness program that we should all be proud of. I hope to see you all around Glendale as I will be volunteering more and continuing to give back. Please take care of yourselves, laugh a little and be kind to others on your journey. Each day is a gift!

The internet is a big place — make sure you’re staying safe while having fun!📱💻

June is National Internet Safety Month and a good time for a reminder that being smart online means protecting your info, making good choices, and knowing when to ask for help.

Let’s raise safe and confident digital explorers!💡

We reflect on the importance of Juneteenth, celebrate the strides we've made, and reaffirm our dedication to building a future rooted in equality for all.❤️💛💚
