We are so excited to add Brandy Walraven to our 4th grade team!
My name is Brandy Walraven, and I’m so excited to be joining the team here at Jay Elementary! I graduated from the University of West Florida and have spent the past four years teaching third grade. Teaching is truly my passion, especially when it comes to reading—I love helping students discover their niche and inspiring a lifelong love of learning.
Outside the classroom, I’m a proud mom to two amazing kids, ages 13 and 10. As a family, we love spending time at the beach, being with loved ones, and anything that involves animals—big or small, especially the ones with scales!
I’m thrilled to be part of this community and can’t wait to get to know my students, their families, and my fellow educators. Here’s to a wonderful school year ahead!

There will be a School Board meeting on June 10th at Central School.

Summer Office Hours.

Don't forget that today is early release! Have a great Summer!

We need your help getting all of our amazing books back into the library before summer break!

It's been a great year in Kindergarten at JES! Yesterday, each class celebrated their accomplishments. Congratulations to these Little Royals!
