Mrs. Mitchell, Mrs. Stewart & Ms. Wallace Pre-k Class Brought the New Year in Right, With A 2026 New Year Celebration! 🎉
📅✨ The Future Starts Here—Planning Together ✨📅
As we kick off 2026, it’s hard to believe we’re already halfway through this school year—and what an exciting journey it’s been so far! 🐾❤️
For all of our planners (we see you 👀🗓️), we’re excited to officially share the 2026–2027 School Calendar! While there’s still so much learning, celebrating, and memory-making ahead for the remainder of this year, we know how important it is for families and staff to plan ahead with confidence.
From special events and milestones still to come this spring to the many opportunities waiting for our Bulldogs next school year, the best is truly yet to come. We’re grateful for our families, staff, and community as we continue building momentum together—this year and beyond.
📌 The 2026–2027 School Calendar is now available on our website at tcitys.org under Approved School Calendars—or you can view it directly using the link below to start planning:

This is a note from Mrs. Haythorn:
Good morning. I have openings in the afterschool art program beginning in January for both Tuesday and Wednesday. Would you please run this information on the Jerger website to help me get the word out?
After School Art 2025-26
The class is for grades 1-5 and runs from 3:00-5:00, Tuesday or Wednesday.
I furnish a small snack for the students prior to beginning work. Please let me know of any food allergies. Pick-up will be at the back parking lot at 5:00.
The cost for the class is $40.00 per month, with Venmo, cash or checks payable to Lindajo Haythorn. Payment is due on the first of each month.
We study the elements and principles of art through a variety of medium. Art history is woven into each lesson. My goal is to teach children to appreciate art and to be comfortable with self-expression.
Please let me know if you would like to enroll your child or if you have any questions.
