#GoJags #JacksonvilleJaguars #OneClay

Thanks bunches to these 2 rockstars who helped put together the new ball pit.





Calling all Jaguars! Our team is heading to the Playoffs this Sunday, and we want to show them some serious SPC love!
This Friday, January 9th, we are turning the school into a sea of teal and black. Whether you’re a student, teacher, or staff member, let’s show our spirit!
What to Wear:
👕 Your favorite Black or Teal shirts
🐆 Your wildest Jaguar Print
🐾 Any Jaguars Gear you have!
Let’s fill the hallways with pride and get ready to cheer our team on to a playoff victory! Go Jags! 🏈💪

As our students return to class tomorrow morning after Winter Break, it’s the perfect time for a quick refresher on getting to school safely. Whether you walk, ride, or drive, we all play a part in keeping our school community safe.
Check out these tips to help us all arrive safe:
🚶 WALK SAFE! - Heads Up, Phone Down! Use sidewalks and cross only at corners and crosswalks. Look LEFT-RIGHT-LEFT before crossing. Be seen!
🚲 RIDE SAFE! (Bikes, E-Bikes, & E-Scooters) - Helmet On: It’s the LAW for riders under 16. Obey all stop signs and traffic lights. Ride with traffic and stay bright! Yield to walkers on the sidewalk.
⚡ E-Riders: You are fast and quiet. Drivers don't always expect you—be extra alert and slow down at intersections!
🚌 BUS SAFE! - Wait in a safe place well away from the road. Board or cross ONLY when the driver gives you the "OK" signal. Stay seated and keep the aisle clear.
Drivers: Please review the "School Bus Safety Rules" graphic below so you know exactly when you MUST stop! 🛑
🚗 DRIVE SAFE! - Slow down, especially in school zones. Look twice for kids at every intersection, driveway, and crosswalk. Give bikes 3 feet! Put the phone away and focus on the road.
Let's work together to make the first day back a safe one. Share this post with your students and neighbors to help spread the word!
We can't wait to see you tomorrow! ✨
