Dear Jefferson Families,

At Jefferson, we operate with one core belief: ALL students CAN learn! We see the potential in your children every single day, and we are committed to helping them shine—especially as we grow their confidence and skills in math.

To reach our big goals for student success, we’ve launched an exciting new Math Incentive Program, and we need your help to kick off the celebration!

How you can get involved:
Please take a look at the attached flyer and talk with your student about the challenge. We are encouraging every student to reach a major milestone: completing at least one Math 180 Topic.

Your encouragement at home makes all the difference. Whether it’s a high-five for effort or a quick "you've got this," your support helps create the excitement that fuels their learning.

Together, we are working toward our district goal of nearly doubling the number of students performing at proficient and advanced levels by 2030. Let’s show our students that with a little hard work and a lot of support, they can achieve anything!

Go Statesmen!

Statesmen Families! 😄
