We are beyond proud to announce that CJF scored a 99% on our recent sanitation audit!

This incredible accomplishment wouldn’t be possible without our amazing custodial team.  Thank you for your endless passion, hard work, and dedication to keeping our campus safe and shining every single day.

A huge thank you also goes out to our wonderful staff and students. Thank you for doing your part to keep our spaces clean and for treating CJF like your second home.

It truly takes a village, and we are so grateful for our incredible school community 💛

Our 3rd grade scientists put their engineering skills to the test in the Science Lab with Mr. Nathan! Using gumdrops and toothpicks, students designed and built bridges to see how many pennies they could hold.
