Attention Parents, Guardians, and Students,
Please be advised that there has been a change to the original school calendar. May 23, 2024 will now be a half day for students.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
As Teacher Appreciation Week unfolds, we at James H. Cary Intermediate School are overwhelmed with gratitude for the incredible support our community has shown. A heartfelt thank you to each and every one of you who contributed to making this week special.
Firstly, we extend our deepest thanks to Janet Bohlmann and the Bohlmann family for their generous donation of teacher care kits. Your thoughtfulness has brought smiles to our dedicated educators.
We also want to acknowledge the kindness of St. John’s Episcopal Church in Essex County. Your gesture of being our "Angels" has truly brightened our teachers' days and reinforced the strong community spirit that supports our school.
Additionally, a special thank you to Segars Legacy Center for providing a delicious lunch for our staff.
Lastly, our appreciation goes out to the small but mighty JCIS PTO for organizing a delightful salad bar for all our staff. This delicious treat was not only a testament to your commitment to our school but also a significant morale booster for everyone.
Thank you all for your contributions and for helping us show how much we value our incredible teachers at JCIS. Your acts of kindness remind us of the strong, supportive web we have spun together as a community.
