PTA


P.T.A. is a very vital and active part of Jefferson School. Officers, committee heads, staff, and parents meet monthly to make decisions relating to our school. Approximately two P.T.A. unit meetings are held each year beginning with the annual all school Open House in the fall. Please plan to attend. Children at Jefferson need you!

Box Tops for Education

This year the Jefferson PTA is collecting Box Tops for Education for Jefferson Elementary.  Box Tops is an easy way to earn cash for our school through everyday activities - at no additional cost to you.  Just Clip Box Tops from hundreds of participating products. Box Tops are worth 10¢ each when our school redeems them from Box Tops for Education.  A collection box is located in front of the library.

A new Jefferson School, located at 39th and Grover, opened in 1938. The current Jefferson School opened in September of 1954. For years, Jefferson School used the current building and the 39th and Grover building for classes. The diverse student population includes children in kindergarten through sixth grade. In addition to regular classroom instruction, Jefferson Elementary School hosts a wide range of programs for children enrolled in English as a Second Language, and Special Education Resource and Speech Therapy.
