Dear Jaguars,
I want to update you on Homecoming and MAP testing.
Homecoming:
Next Monday Jefferson will run a special schedule and will have a Homecoming pep fest after period 2. Unfortunately you will need to be at Kennedy for period 3. ;( It will be broadcast via video to the 9th and 10th graders and I can try to get you the recording. On the bright side you won't need to leave class early or get to class late that day.
JHS Homecoming Schedule for Monday, 9/27
PERIOD 1 7:50 – 8:42
PERIOD 2 8:48 – 9:40
Get on the bus at JHS to come to KHS at 9:45 am.
Pep Fest (Turf Field) 9:50 – 10:16
PERIOD 3 10:22 – 11:14
PERIOD 4 11:20 – 12:12
Get on the bus at KHS @ 12 to come to come back to JHS for lunch.
3rd Lunch/Passing Time 12:12 – 12:42
MAP testing for 9th graders:
We are not allowed to test you at Kennedy even if you're classmates are taking the MAP tests during the DA class. So Mrs. Jarvis, the Assistant Principal, will invite you to take it during another class (probably p 5 or 6). Your parent can also opt you out of MAP testing. You will have work time while your Kennedy classmates are taking their MAP tests and then you'll rejoin with us when they are done and we'll continue learning together.
Take care and happy homecoming!

By Edward Kang, April 4, 2019 https://www.edutopia.org/article/5-research-backed-studying-techniques Too often people imagine that long hours of studying are the best path to being a model, straight-A student. Yet research shows that highly successful students actually spend less time studying than their peers do—they just study more effectively. Teachers can help all students learn to more effectively use the time they spend studying by sharing research-proven techniques. STUDY LESS, WITH GREATER INTENSITY In this era of social media and digital distractions, many students—and adults—do a lot of multitasking. But there is no such thing as successful multitasking, because much of the time spent is wasted on context switching, where the brain has to restart and refocus. Consider the formula “work accomplished
