Many of us went to sleep on Thursday night, thinking it wouldn't happen after all. And then it did!! The JEFCOED family enjoyed a beautiful snow day on Friday.❄️☃️ Thank you to all of those who sent in pictures. Your smiles and joy warmed our hearts. Here are just a few of the many fantastic pictures we received.
December perfect attendance award winners! We are so proud of these top scholars. "Research shows that missing 10 percent of the school, or about 18 days in most school districts, negatively affects a student’s academic performance. That’s just two days a month and that’s known as chronic absence" -attendanceworks.org

This morning, the Alabama Department of Education approved a resolution recognizing Dr. Walter B. Gonsoulin, Jr. as the 2025 Alabama Superintendent of the Year!! Dr. Gonsoulin serves State School Board Districts Three, Four, and Seven with heart, vision, and determination. We couldn't be prouder of his leadership.
Congratulations, Dr. Gonsoulin! You've made us all #JEFCOEDProud!
Former Hueytown graduate Alton Davis (@amdavis_2) pouring into the next generation of athletes. It was such an amazing opportunity for these young men to see what their future could look through hard work and dedication. What an amazing thing to see!

Congratulations top scholars!
A HUGE thank you to a very generous Mr. Smith for donating this brand new leaf blower to our school this morning. At the family house meeting Coach O'Brien explained to families how she creates an inclusive environment in her PE class by using these (see videos) to allow our Exceptional Education students to throw and catch with their peers. After hearing this, Mr. Smith went to Lowes and purchased this one for our student to be able to use in addition to the one we had. Thank you so much!
