Grandparents Visit Jordak for Annual Event
We were so thrilled to once again see so many grandparents walk the halls of Jordak Elementary School for our annual Grandparents Day! Students love showing them their classrooms and the building and shopping at the book fair and plant sale are added bonuses! Families can also enjoy breakfast treats and get their pictures taken together. Thank you to everyone who participated in this fun event!

First Graders Create Tornadoes
Weather phenomenons can be a little difficult to grasp, but thanks to a recent experiment, first graders now have a better understanding of how tornadoes can form! Our favorite science guy Mr. Claire Zurbuch, aka Mr. Z., visited all classes recently to have them do everyone’s favorite – “tornado in a bottle” experiment! Students swirled water in adjoining bottles to create a vortex, making it easier for air to come in and water to pour out, which then created a rotating tornado! Students were very excited to see the concept develop in front of them. Thanks Mr. Z for helping us learn!
