High Five Fridays: Correctional Institution Officers, Elementary Kids Trade Encouragement
March 12, 2018
Corrections officers from Century Correctional Institution and students from Jay Elementary School traded lots of high fives Friday.
The Jay Elementary School PTO started High Five Friday to connect students with uniformed officials and rescue heroes from the community. It’s an effort to keep kids enthusiastic and energized about learning.
The uniformed officials stop by on Friday mornings and give the students high fives and words of encouragement.

My kids love this. They look forward to it.
My students absolutely LOVE giving high fives and meeting our local EMS, Fire Rescue, and Law Officials. What a fantastic way to bring the community together!
This is a great program
