Walking Savannah

Took a day to go down to Savannah and walk the city to take in the culture and architecture.  What a beautiful place!!!

Who thought golf was a dangerous sport?

The little white things in the picture aren't eggs, they're golf balls.  While golfing at the Sea Pines Heron Point Course, my ball came to rest with several others near a fairly large alligator.  Needless to say, I left my golf ball with the gator.

Happy Fourth of July

We are enjoying our week at Sea Pines on Hilton Head Island.  Our house is on the 10th hole of the Ocean Course and we have some interesting neighbors.

JYJ Teachers On The Ground in Haiti!!

Our JYJ Haiti Team is on the ground and have had their first meal in Haiti (Peanut Butter and Jelly and Coca Cola.)

As we get more information and pictures we will post them for all to see.

Getting Ready for 2011-2012!!!

Our Head Custodian, Mr. Bizzell, has been working hard to get our 4th and 5th grade teachers moved into the main building and to get our Spanish Teachers moved into the modular building.

We are converting our Computer Lab to a classroom and will set up a portable computer lab that we will set up each day in the WJYJ newsroom after the news.  

We are tentatively planning on having a classroom in First Grade and a classroom in Second Grade that will be team taught with two teachers working with a class of students.  

JYJ Haiti Team Leaves for Haiti Next Week!

Help Heal Haiti

A team of very dedicated teachers will be traveling to Haiti the week of June 24th to bring healing, food, clean water, and lots of love to children in orphanages throughout the countryside of Haiti.  As you can imagine, we are very proud of our Haiti Team because they represent the best of what we are at Joyner!
