2. T-shirts will be sold during lunch and after school on Monday and then the rest of the week will be in the morning, during lunch, and after school. (See Class of 2025 Shirt below)
3. Kids will get them immediately. As soon as they purchase it, we will hand them a T-Shirt. It is first come first serve on sizes, so we encourage students to purchase them early to get the size they want.
4. We can do cash only. Shirts cost $15.
5. We encourage all students to purchase their class shirt so that they can participate in Friday’s spirit day, which is class colors. This is also the only class shirt we will have for students this year, so it’s a great thing to purchase and look back on in future years. Having the class shirt is also helpful for trips so that students can wear their class shirt and represent Jackson-Reed.
