Families are strongly encouraged to attend all J.A.M. club meetings and/or parent meetings. Picnics A great time for families to relax and enjoy time together! J.A.M.

Our monthly group meeting we encourage every family to regularly attend that opens with all ages interactive music class, including learning songs to be performed at the end of the year. Also includes the monthly birthday celebration and time for small group activities. It is vital that all parents commit to a JAM volunteer role so we can all share responsibilities.

Club songs are performed. |
Q: |
Is every year the same? |
A: |
Every year is a little different. It all depends on what families are interested in, and if there are volunteers available to make it happen. Some years we have had STEM classes, Career Exploration with field trips, Student Council, PhyEd Classes, Fall Festival, or themed events (such as pioneer/old fashioned games & activities). |
Q: |
Are there group events in the summer? |
A: |
Yes! Although summer events are optional, a good amount of families enjoy gathering once a month at the park in the summer. Depending on interest, families may choose to plan extra field trips or gatherings. |
