IDOE's Literacy Center is pleased to announce the 72 awardees for the competitive 2023-2024 Science of Reading Grant. This competitive grant opportunity is designed to support state-accredited schools that serve students in kindergarten through grade three and whose educators are interested in implementing evidence-based practices aligned with science of reading and Indiana's Priorities for Early Literacy. JGSC was awarded $150,000 to use for training and curriculum aligned with SoR. This is the maximum award for a district of this size. 

Students at WES have been bringing in non-perishables all week to STUFF A JGSC BUS with donations for the Walkerton Food Pantry.  Our student council members have been busy collecting and tallying the items for a fun classroom competition!  Thank you to all the parents who contributed to help our students learn about caring, kindness, and generosity.
