Announcement: Service Day October 18



From JCIB PG Campus

 JCIB Service Day is Friday, October 18. Students will be serving  in the county, throughout the community, and at school. 

Students who will be participating in the county or community hubs received a Permission to Travel form last week. Those forms were due Tuesday, October 15. If that form was not submitted, those students will be completing service projects at school. A complete list of those approved for travel is located outside of the counselor suite.

Students reporting to an off campus county hub should be reminded that lunch is on your own. If parents are not staying, students should bring their lunch. Students may not ride to a restaurant during the lunch break with somebody other than the individual that transported them to the location. As a reminder, county service hubs are from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm.
Students participating in community service events will report to school as normal. Students will be bused to their assigned location at designated times. Students may purchase a bagged lunch from the lunchroom or bring their own. Thank you!

When her doctor quit prescribing them, she took other people’s pills and eventually turned to a cheaper and more available drug: heroin. She reached out to her family and they helped with treatment programs. Laura eventually spent 30 days in a residential treatment program, but the drugs were stronger than she was, and she relapsed and started taking heroin again. In the end, Laura overdosed on a mixture of the opioid morphine, alcohol, and cocaine when she was just 17. This is an example of drug use progression. At the same age as some of our children, Laura started experimenting with drugs and alcohol....

The Importance of Extracurricular Activities

Hi Family, School is in and we are getting into our study and homework routines.  Our children are learning.  The teachers are teaching.  The classroom routines are well on the way.  What more could there be?  Well, there are the extracurricular activities offered through the school.  Are you on the fence about your child being involved in extracurricular activities?  Let's talk about the benefits. Cultural Integration Many new students can experience “culture shock” when they first arrive at JCIB PG Campus. It's literally a whole new world. Some are in a school far from home with new students and new teachers.  The teaching style may be very different from what they are accustomed to. Getting involved in extracurricular activities can help students overcome this sensation and allow them to intimately understand the culture at their new school in a way that the typical classroom environment may not provide. For example, joining a student g...
