The Principal at Esther Jackson
Welcomes You!

Dear Parents, It
is my pleasure to welcome you on behalf of this talented staff to another
exciting year at Esther Jackson Elementary.
We were so proud of our results from last year and feel that we
lived up to our motto: Esther Jackson, Where Learning Leads the
Way! Can you believe that our
Pre K students will be the class of 2022?! As
many of you know, over the past three years Esther Jackson has grown by
programs while our student enrollment has remained the same. This growth has resulted in a student to
adult ratio of 7:1 (instructional staff only). Our focus is always on learning but our
students get a healthy dose of TLC from our awesome teachers and assistants. We
hope you will use this Parent Handbook and Calendar for general information
and event planning. Please pay close
attention to the PTA information. Our
new president, Paul Witmer, is enthusiastic and energetic, but he and the PTA
Board members need your help. PTA
membership begins at $5 per person. Isn’t
that a bargain! There are many
opportunities for you to be involved in projects that support student
learning and work with some truly wonderful people. This year we have added a few events to our
calendar. We have planned volunteer
days and will sponsor again a Math Mania Night. (Character Day, Cut Loose with Seuss, The
Holiday Luncheon, Grandparent’s Day and other favorites remain!) We have included Community Board Meetings on
this calendar. We encourage you to
attend these meetings where our Board members provide information on agenda
items and seek input for future decisions.
Esther Jackson is represented on the Fulton County Board of Education
by Linda Schultz and Julia Bernath who are eager supporters of our school. Thursday
is the day that we send information to parents. Every week we publish Jaguar Spots our
school newsletter, This newsletter and
our website will give you the latest information about Esther Jackson and are
the most efficient way to keep up with what is going on at school. Signed and returned papers and grade level
newsletters are distributed by-weekly on Thursday. Please
contact us if you need anything and visit when you can. Our students love “lunch dates” with their
parents and grandparents, AND if you are willing, we will put you to work and
promise you will love it! Have
a great year. Sincerely, Connie Coles |
