Today's JBE spirit assembly was another incredible experience celebrating our JBE students!
Mrs. Clark’s 2nd graders have been busy traveling the world… through books and imagination! After reading Flat Stanley, each student created their own “flat person” and mailed them off to family and friends across the globe.
From coast to coast here in the U.S. to across the pond in England—and even all the way to the ancient ruins of Machu Picchu—these little travelers had some incredible adventures!
What an amazing PEEP day the students in Mrs. Boudreau's class had. They made predictions, built Peep habitats, read Peep stories and even adopted Peeps! The smiles tell it all!

Ms. Lunt's class had an amazing day today. Our kindergarteners had an egg-citing PEEP Day! From building 3D homes for our peeps to taste tests, graphing, writing, and even creating our own unique peeps — we explored STEM, literacy, and creativity in the sweetest way! 🐥💕
Ms. Lunt's class got to have some special visitors from third grade to read to us. Story time is extra special when it’s with our third grade buddies! Thank you to our friends from Mrs. Conrad's class for reading to us! 📚❤️
Third graders were treated to a special book reading by local author, nurse, and community activist, Marybeth Pena. She shared her book The KinDoo Journey inspired by her experience in the Peace Corps and Nicaragua. Thank you Ms. Marybeth. 📖 ❤️
🌱SPOTLIGHT ON EVERGLADES EDUCATION🌱
Jensen Beach Elementary School’s own Ms. Liberty–a dedicated and passionate science educator–is making waves in environmental education and was recently featured in the Everglades Foundation Impact Report!
She shares how she brings science to life for students through hands-on lessons that connect them to their local ecosystem—igniting curiosity and a love for learning using the Everglades Literacy Program.
Ms. Liberty also celebrates Jensen Beach Elementary, the Center for Environmental Stewardship, earning Gold-Level Champion School status two years in a row for its commitment to conservation education. 🏆🌱
Congrats, Ms. Liberty!

We had a blast celebrating our students in grades 3–5 who read and passed an AR test on the Sunshine State books! These dedicated readers earned their spot at the party and enjoyed pizza, cupcakes, and some awesome prizes. So proud of all their hard work—keep reading! Thank you to the JBE PTA for supporting the media center and these fabulous readers!
Mrs. Clark’s 2nd graders are teaming up to research how wind and water erosion have shaped our national parks. From canyons to arches, they’re exploring the power of nature and learning through teamwork and curiosity. We’re so proud of their hard work and discovery!
