Jenks East Elementary Trojans spent the month of June becoming Difference Makers! Students identified, learned, and connected with the word empathy. After visiting the Aquarium and Turkey Mountain, they brainstormed ways they can apply empathy to both animals and people. Using engineering, students solved problems to help birds with broken wings, keep people on their identified trails, and build a shelter for animals in need. Today, students proudly showcased their creations to their friends and family as official Difference Makers. We love to see it!

Transformation COMPLETE! In just four short weeks, the old surface at Allan Trimble Stadium was replaced with new, pristine turf. This is a field worthy of champions. Thanks to our partners at Forever Lawn Tulsa for their incredible work on this project, and thank you to Jenks voters who approved bond propositions to secure the funding. Can't wait to see our athletic teams, our band, and our entire community benefit from this turf!

Small gestures can make a big difference. Something as simple as a wave can create a smile and a connection. Every afternoon, David Winn sits in front of his house and waves at students from West Intermediate and West Elementary as they roll by on the bus. It’s something David looks forward to every single day, and it’s something our students and bus drivers absolutely love. Today, members of the JPS Transportation Department gathered in David’s driveway to present him with the “Spirit of Transportation” Award and personally thank him for his commitment and contribution to the JPS culture. Congrats, David! Thank you for all you do to build up our people and make our community a better place!

Ideas are good. Taking action on those ideas is even better. Students in the Dual Language Program at Jenks East Intermediate recently participated in advocacy projects in which they identified problems in the community and came up with solutions. When they realized not all students have access to books at home, they started a school-wide book drive and collected more than 3,000 books! They donated 1,500 to the OSU-Tulsa Stache of Books program to distribute in the Greenwood Community and today, they loaded the other 1,500 books on the Trojans Read the Way Bookmobile. The Bookmobile will be out and about in Jenks and South Tulsa throughout the summer months. What an incredible act of kindness and generosity from these JEI Trojans! Thanks to all who donated!

Class of 2023 collabing with the class of 2034! This is the 4th year that Jenks High School seniors in Mr. Foster's English class have paired up with Jenks West Elementary first grade students in Ms. Treat's class to write a book! Today, first graders took a trip to the JHS Media Center to finally see and read the book the seniors wrote about them.
