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
Community Flower Garden- A Creative Collaboration
Jonesville High School Advanced Art Class collaborated to create this amazing sculpture. Each artist applied their own creativity, personal connections and sense of significance behind what the theme “FLOWERS” + Community means to them. They then problem solved together how to construct with balance, repetition, and thought given to all of the organizational principles of design and elements of art.
Thank you to County National Bank for this opportunity and support of the arts as well as our artists.

Our advanced math and science students had the opportunity to go to Cedar Point for Physics, Science, and Math Day on May 11th. They had a great day; Mrs. Morris and Mrs. Zeiler hope to make this trip an annual event. Students were encouraged to submit pictures showing that they were scientists or mathematicians at Cedar Point. Some of the submissions are included in this post.

Check out this opportunity!
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!
