🌟 Excitement was in the air on the first day of school at Jackson Street! 🌟

Our students kicked off the day with a delicious breakfast of waffles and fruit before gathering for our First Day Rally, where they joined their school cabins!

Our school cabins are student groups within our school that will help students build connections throughout the year. Together, we'll focus on building a community and creating a school where every student feels connected, supported, and proud to belong.

We're so excited for the year ahead and all the memories we'll make together. Here's to a fantastic year!
