The teachers do an excellent job. But Keith feels it's other staff like custodians Doug Wills and Bill Lichtman that help make Jefferson a distinguished school. Keith said Wills and Lichtman do many things around the campus besides make it look good. Wills, for instance, is also a facilitator to PTA events and helps out with other special events. There is also a lot of communication between parents and the staff at Jefferson on everything from curriculum to special events.
Parents serve on committees and also serve as volunteers in the classroom.
They are very involved in the process. If we all work for a common goal, the kids do very well. Letters written to Jefferson Dear Ms. Keith, Congratulations on being recognized as a Distinguished School in California by the California Department of Education. It is a tremendous honor, and very well deserved. I am glad to see that California schools are leading the way with providing leading educational programs to benefit our state's youth.
