Letter from Dr. Sherman to Jefferson-Houston Community

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Jefferson-Houston Staff and Community:

Last evening the Alexandria School Board voted unanimously to designate Jefferson-Houston Elementary School as a focus school for International Baccalaureate PYP and MYP Programmes as well as for the K-8 model. Students throughout the city will have the opportunity to opt into Jefferson-Houston for its unique programs, and ACPS will provide transportation. It was a proud moment, truly a celebratory moment, for all of us who were there.

I commend you — the staff, students, and parents who have worked diligently for a long time — for your dedication to Jefferson-Houston. You held fast to the belief that Jefferson-Houston would one day be a dynamic and successful school that the people of Alexandria would choose for their children. Thanks especially to Principal Kim Graves, who brings such energy and passion to the task of ensuring that each and every child will be successful.

We have not yet reached our goals for Jefferson-Houston, but we are on our way. You are to be commended for your willingness to embark on the International Baccalaureate PYP and MYP Programmes — not a small task but one that can carry you further toward your goal of making Jefferson-Houston an exemplary school.

Thank you for all that you do for the children in the Jefferson-Houston community. And thank you to the students who work very hard to improve academically. You have a bright future.

Sincerely,

Morton Sherman 
Superintendent of Schools"
