Welcome to our 2014-15 School Year

Welcome to our 2014-15 School Year

We a blasting off this year for our Janssen Way/PBIS focus on making good decisions each and every day.  Our staff has worked extremely hard this summer to get our focus, lessons, and boosters finalized to deliver to our students.  The focus aligns with our school's vision statement:


We have narrowed our target to being respectful and responsible for what you do at school and in the community.  Each morning our students are reminded about our focus and purpose as Janssen students during our all school Morning PAWS.  We share with our students that it is not simply about knowing what to do but to put this knowledge into practice each day.  It is great to see the collective value that the Janssen Way brings into our building, defining our building to best support our students.

In addition to making meaning and practicing our community values,  we are also targeting 'making connections'--teachers and students making connections to support students who may be having moments where they are not engaged and productive.  In other words we want to ensure that our students truly believe they can come to an adult at school when having issues--academic or social.

I am very happy on how we have started our school year and am excited for my staff to continue with making the Janssen Way the enduring fabric of our building.

Sincerely,

Principal N
