🐾 WELCOME BACK, JAGUARS! 🖤💛

Last week, JA was buzzing with excitement as we welcomed our staff back into the building and kicked off an awesome week of preparation for the 2026–27 school year! 🎉

Mr. Paproth welcomed and introduced all of our new staff members to the JA family, we enjoyed some delicious food (a HUGE thank you to Mr. Ford and Mr. Nunn! 👏), spent time preparing our classrooms, collaborating with colleagues, and getting everything ready for the best part of our job—YOU, our Jaguars!

Tomorrow, the halls will be filled with our students once again, and we CANNOT WAIT to welcome everyone back to Jerstad-Agerholm!

Let’s make it an incredible year together!

BE HERE. BE GREAT. BE A JAGUAR. 🐆

We can’t wait to welcome ALL of our Jaguars back into the building in just a few weeks! 🐆

Our School-Based OT and SLP teamed up to create a meaningful vocational learning experience for students in our Summer School Functional Adaptive Program! 🖤💛

We have some exciting news to share with our families! 🥦🍎

Jerstad-Agerholm has been selected to participate in the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program this year! Twice a week, our students will have the opportunity to try a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables, encouraging them to explore new tastes and build healthy habits.

In addition, this program will bring engaging educational activities into our classrooms to help students learn more about the benefits of eating fruits and vegetables.

We are so grateful for this amazing opportunity to support the health and wellness of our Jaguars! 🖤💛 #JAALLDAY

On Wednesday, we had the honor of celebrating our 5th grade students as they were promoted to middle school! This milestone marks an exciting transition for both our students and their families as they take the next step in their journey here at JA.

While our elementary teachers will certainly miss these amazing students, we’re lucky they’ll only be a hallway away! We are so proud of all our Jaguars and can’t wait to welcome you back as middle schoolers in the fall. 🖤💛 #JAALLDAY

Mrs. Conner’s 6th grade students recently completed beautiful Georgia O’Keeffe-inspired oil pastel projects! Students did an outstanding job using color, detail, and creativity to bring their artwork to life.

Their hard work truly shows that we have some amazing artists here at JA. Keep making us proud, Jaguars! 🖤💛 #JAALLDAY

Students in Mrs. Conner’s art classes were challenged to bring their creativity to life by designing their own custom Funko Pop-style characters! Starting with a 3D-printed base figure, students used Model Magic clay and acrylic paint to transform their ideas into unique works of art—whether inspired by themselves, a favorite character, or something entirely original.

We are so proud of the hard work, imagination, and creativity our students demonstrated throughout this project. Amazing job, Jaguars! 🖤💛 #JAALLDAY

On Tuesday night, we had the opportunity to celebrate our 8th grade students as they crossed the bridge and moved on to high school. 🎓

We are so proud of all of our Jaguars! While we will miss you next year, we can’t wait to see all that you accomplish in the future. Remember, you’ll always have a home here at JA—come back and visit us!
