Jefferson Staff are enjoying Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week with the theme “Through the Decades!” They started the week in a 1950’s diner and soda shop making their own milkshakes, root beer floats, and sodas in The Den. Thank you so much to the Jefferson Teachers and Community Club for celebrating our staff!









2023 Summer Reading Program at the Belleville Public Library


4th grade wrote persuasive essays to persuade readers to eat at their favorite restaurants and then mailed the essays to the restaurants. Sophea's essay was so persuasive that China King reached back out to her with a letter of appreciation and a gift card so that she can order her favorite chicken fried rice! Way to go Sophea and thank you China King!
