Our 5th grade students were recognized for completing their elementary school years with a 5th grade graduation ceremony on Monday.
Student speakers were Savannah Nye and Hunter Trine. The students sang a song for those in attendance and received a certificate from their teacher.
We sure will miss them and wish them the best as they move on to middle school!
Our 5th grade students were treated to a school-wide "clap-out" before their 5th grade graduation ceremony on Monday.
We hope that they felt the love!
From Williams Elementary:
Today we had the chance to recognize our final Student of the Month honorees for the 2022-2023 school year.
These students were nominated by a staff member as being a student who others can count on: they are dependable.
Congratulations!

From Williams Elementary:
On May 31st, the 4th grade had their annual Market Day. The students created a business and product to sell to their classmates and school staff.
Everyone had a great time buying and selling to others!
Thank you to all the families who helped make this day possible.
JCS gives thanks to all who have made the greatest sacrifice to our nation. On a day filled with family and friends, please take a moment to remember those who are no longer able to.
Here at Williams Elementary, this year Earth Day was extra special! S.T.E.M. students from kindergarten through 5th grade were immersed in the importance of protecting our planet and taking action.
The younger grades learned about recycling and conserving our natural resources, pollination, planting flowers in the Children’s Garden, and raising and releasing Painted Lady butterflies. Our little scientists witnessed the new butterflies uncurl their long tongues, or proboscis, and drink the nectar from the flowers they had planted themselves! (Now that’s hands-on, minds-on learning!)
A big thank you goes out to Mrs. Warner for coordinating all of these activities for our students.
Comet community! I wanted to update you on the bond progress. We finalized the scope of the bond on Tuesday. We had to have 75% or higher agreement for a project to be approved and were able to have 83% agreement with our final vote. We will present the bond proposal to the board at our June 12th study session which will be at the Jonesville Middle School library at 6:00. I hope you are able to make it out to see what is included. There are a lot of needed projects being addressed and needed updates including safe and secure entryways.
I am still taking questions for my "Lessons with Les" series that we are going to do. This is a time for Les Hutchinson and myself to answer community questions with a video series. Here is the link to post YOUR question: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/FG5TYDK
Here at Williams Elementary, this year Earth Day was extra special! S.T.E.M. students from kindergarten through 5th grade were immersed in the importance of protecting our planet and taking action.
Older students researched different types of pollution, helped clean up the grounds of our own school district, recycled paper products, and created beautiful and informative Earth Day Posters. These posters decorated the halls and acted as reminders how everyone can save, protect, and take care of our Earth.

Thank you to all who were able to help make the evening a success and to all who attended.
Last night, the City of Jonesville awarded citizen of the year to three former Jonesville School alum: Dr. Leising, former teacher and current volunteer at WES, and Hayden James and Carson Laney who are 2020 graduates. Their stories of gratitude and service was a model of what the award is about. Though I did not have the pleasure of knowing the two graduates, it was clear the reason they were awarded youth citizens of the year. Congratulations and Go Comets!
