1st Grade Overview

Welcome to 1st Grade at South Jackson Elementary!

Welcome to first grade at South Jackson Elementary School! Our goal is to provide our students with a safe, supportive, positive, and fun learning environment where they can learn and grow.  Our classrooms focus on relationship building in order to successfully meet each student's individual needs. The first-grade team will continue to build on foundational math skills while teaching new strategies that will help students become effective problem solvers. We will continue to build on phonic knowledge, reading and comprehension strategies, as well as writing strategies that will help to prepare students for the next level and beyond.  The team will also focus on mindset skills in order to help students to develop social skills, become positive thinkers, and confident individuals.
