Student Council Leads the Way at Lucy Wortham James Elementary! ❤️🐯🤍

LWJE Student Council is putting Engaged Citizenship into action by leading recycling efforts and helping their school stay organized, including tidying up the Lucy Libraries.

Recycling and caring for shared spaces at school connect directly to the responsibilities we all have in our communities, such as protecting the environment, volunteering, and being active citizens.

ROX Girls’ Sweet Success: Critical Thinking in Action! 🍫✨🤝

St. James Middle School ROX students put their teamwork skills to the test with an activity called "Chocolate River.” Using only floating "marshmallows," they had to get the entire team across the river without touching the ground. This activity highlights our Portrait of a Graduate core value of Critical Thinking, as students strategized, problem-solved, and worked together to win the challenge. #academicexcellence #stjschools #tigerpride

Jumpstart Tigers at Lucy Wortham James Elementary! ❤️🐯🤍

Each morning, Jumpstart Tigers brings our mission to life by giving students the chance to begin the day with a boost of confidence. A simple hairstyle from a trusted adult becomes a moment of care, connection, and support.

Attendance: Your Passport to Success! 🌍🐯✈️

We’re kicking off the 2025–26 school year with our first attendance update, and it’s a strong start! In Missouri, the state looks at the 90/90 rule when measuring regular attendance. This means students need to be present 90% of the time during 90% of the instructional year to stay on track.

Why does this matter? Students who meet the 90/90 rule are more likely to succeed academically, build strong connections at school, and develop the habits that prepare them for life after graduation. Every day in class adds up to a stronger future.

Critical Thinking: Growing Seeds, Growing Minds! 🌱🐯🔎

Ms. Ortega’s 5th graders are putting their Critical Thinking skills to work by testing what seeds really need to grow. With just a bag, water, air, and sunlight, they’re exploring how plants thrive without soil. It’s hands-on learning that challenges them to ask questions, make observations, and think like scientists.

Our Portrait of a Graduate isn’t just words; it’s alive in lessons like this.

Discovering the Tools for Success at St. James Middle School! ❤️🐯🤍

Mrs. Waldmann’s 8th graders are taking the next steps on their road to success. After completing a quiz to discover what kind of learner they are, students rotated through stations to explore seating options, academic tools, self-regulation strategies, and other supports.

Connected to their “I Can” statement, this activity helps students recognize what works best for their growth both in and out of the classroom. All Roads Lead Forward when our Tigers discover how they learn best!
