February in the Gym:

  • Students put in an “Honest” day of work each week in the gym which aligned with our monthly Purposeful People theme.
  • Racket sports lessons integrated honesty in a variety of ways including honesty with self as students practice new skills.
  • Kindergarten to Grade 2 focused on self volleying, underhand serve, and striking skills.
  • Grades 3-5 practiced racket skills in a variety of gameplay activities including badminton.
  • Students raved about the new game, Rollerball. It is a huge hit and students K-5 have had a blast playing it! 

Looking Ahead to March:

  • We started a unit that has been Highly Requested……. BASKETBALL!   Just in time for March Madness …
  • Basketball lessons will be infused with our Purposeful People theme of the month “Cooperation”.

The Jenkins School community honored the life of Lori Mahoney who recently passed away after a long illness.  Lori was a beloved Jenkins teacher, colleague and Scituate community member.  Her last second grade class at Jenkins was in 2020-2021. These students are now current Jenkins fifth graders.
