Leap Day 2024
Mrs. Parker's 1st-grade class came to visit Ms. Ashlie Fox's 5th-grade class for LEAP DAY! These first graders were very inquisitive about fifth-grade life. They will be in fifth grade on the next Leap Day.
East Jones Robotics Club
The East Jones Robotics Club competed at the Hub City MasterPiece qualifier on Saturday, January 27. The club has been active for 7 years in the elementary with a group of teachers involved in coaching these students after school. This club is organized around FIRST LEGO League, an organization that focuses on placing students in situations to combine robotics, research, and realizing what great things they can create to solve real-world problems.
This year’s theme was focused on how the arts and STEM go hand in hand. It is an amazing program and students at the school are so excited to be a part! In years past East Jones RoboTigers (the active team this year) and TigerBots (the second team that is sometimes run) have advanced to the state championship by winning awards in Robot Design and Core Values multiple times. While the team did not advance this year, they were in the top 5 scoring and impressed judges with their in-person interviews. The program is a great opportunity for students to engage in something different and spark interest in different fields of study.
