Joyner's not just a school, it's a community. It's not a place to be for six years of your life, it's a place that will change the rest of your life.

Joyner Jamboree is just a few days away!!!

Dear Parents,

The Joyner Jamboree is just a few days away (Friday, Oct. 15th from 5:30 pm to 8:00 pm.)

Location: JY Joyner Elementary- Out Back, Under the Building, in the Car Pool Loop

Time: 5:30 pm to 8:00 pm

Cost: $5 for a wristband that gains admission to every activity. Food can be purchased from the vendors listed below. Raffle tickets can be purchased separately as well.

Activities: Bounce Houses, Slides, DJ, Games, Haunted Hallway, Face Painting, JYJ Pretend "Emergency Room", Bucket Raffles (in Cafeteria), JYJ Spanish Dancing at 6 pm

Food: Chick-fil-A, Moes, and Carnival Concessions (snow cones, cotton candy, popcorn, etc.)

Special Notes are as listed:

1. Parking is at a premium!!! Be a good neighbor and don't block others driveways or street entrances. Don't leave valuables in your car and make sure to lock things up!

2. Bring a flashlight! The streets around the school can be dark in the evening and with all of the construction, new sidewalk changes seem to happen on a daily basis.

3. If you live within walking distance, you will thank yourself for walking (Once again, bring a flashlight.)

4. Coming with correct change ($5's and $10's) will make things quicker for everyone.

5. Playgrounds are off limits after dark.

6. The main entrance, the back door by carpool, and the doors to the cafeteria will be open as will the restroom facilities. Classrooms are off limits to all except those assisting with preparing our dancers for their performance.

7. Our afterschool program will dismiss from the media center (front of the building.) Afterschool parents should park in the bus loop to pick up students on Friday. Note: Afterschool parents may want to pick up students prior to 5:30 pm to avoid the congestion of the Jamboree or to take advantage of being the first ones there!)

8. Parents, Please monitor your children at all times! Use the buddy system (children go together with a friend or small group) for older children if you need to spend time with your younger children.

9. Wear comfortable shoes!

10. Have a great time!!!
