CIS Jacksonville

Last week, of our amazing students at Sadie T. Tillis Elementary School were inducted into the National Elementary Honor Society! Each of these scholars has been part of our program for at least 2 years (some for as many as 4), which makes this milestone even more special. 🏅👏

Supporting students takes a community, and today we’re sending an extra special thank you to the ones who deliver our donations safe and sound: our mail carriers! 💌Want to be part of a community that shows up for students? Visit our website cisjax.org

My 8th Annual Cornbread Reading Conference was a huge success!!! Here are a few pictures from yesterday. In addition to having fun and dancing with Cornbread, students enjoyed a highly interactive, engaging presentation learning about CONTEXT CLUES, ALLITERATIONS, IDIOMS, CENTRAL IDEAS, SUPPOTING DETAILS, and also the importance of eating healthy and exercising. Thanks to the partnership with @CISJAX for bringing approximately 400 student out and also to @ChartwellsDuval for providing the lunch!!
