GIRLS TENNIS IS GOLDEN! The Trojans secured the 6A state championship with titles at #1 singles (Avery Arent) and #2 singles (Quinn Leos), and runner-up finishes at #1 doubles (Ava Jacobsen, Carrington Hessen) and #2 doubles (Sofia Ohlson, Campbell Johnston).
It's the 19th state crown in program history and the first since 2017 for girls tennis. Congrats, ladies!

Safety is the top priority at Jenks Public Schools. It's why we train. Why we practice and prepare. It's why we continuously evaluate our processes and our response.
Today, the JPS Incident Management Team (IMT) coordinated a full-scale emergency exercise to simulate a bus accident. This was only a drill. Our IMT members worked closely with multiple local agencies - police, fire, EMSA - to go through all aspects of an emergency response. This kind of training is extremely valuable and we are so thankful to our community partners and everyone involved for making this a successful exercise.
This was a drill.

Trust the process. Jordan McCown did, and now he has earned distinction as a National Board Certified Teacher!
McCown, who teaches English at Jenks High School and oversees the Trojan Torch student newspaper, dedicated years to the steps and components involved in completing the most prestigious certification in the teaching profession. This year, McCown is one of only 2,800 teachers across the country to become an NBCT (National Board Certified Teacher). We are so proud of his commitment to professional development and there is no question his students, and our district, will benefit from his self-reflection and hard work!

Sketching a dress, building it on a mini model, then bringing the dress to life in less than 2 weeks doesn't sound like much of a challenge. But what if the dress was made out of newspaper? Jenks High School students in Advanced Wardrobe Planning were tasked to create a recycled design using only newspaper, glue, and tape. They tackled this project effortlessly, and their creations are stunning. Incredible work, Trojans! #5AFriday #Arts

You most likely recognize Jenks High School senior Raymond Jiang from recently being named as the 2022-23 Mr. JHS, earning the prestigious distinction of being an Oklahoma Academic All-State Scholar, Prom King, and becoming a Coca-Cola Scholar.
This past weekend, Raymond attended the Coca-Cola Scholars Weekend in Atlanta, where he was given the opportunity to honor one of his teachers with an Educator of Distinction Award. He chose to present Paula Dennis, JHS College Counselor, with this award for not only helping him achieve his accomplishments but for assisting the entire senior class with navigating life after high school. Thank you, Paula, for putting time and dedication into the future of our Trojans. Congratulations!

No big deal... Jenks Freshman Academy student - Kaytlin Flaherty - is one of 15 students selected out of 4,000 from around the country to have her short and funny story, qin ai de gu ma, represented at the National Chinese Expo of Student Works. Not only is she representing JPS, but she is also representing the state as the only student selected from Oklahoma! Kaytlin participated in the Chinese Immersion Program at Jenks Southeast Elementary starting in 1st grade and has since dreamed of traveling to China. Congratulations, Kaytlin, on this incredible achievement!

Setting a new standard. The girls 4 x 400 relay team didn't just break a record. They broke a record three times in one season and they might not even be done.
Rachel Cornell (junior), Gloria Granderson (sophomore), Olivia Granderson (senior), and Magnolia Crissup (junior) broke the school record when they ran 3:52.31 at Union. A few weeks later, the freaky fast foursome shattered their own mark by running 3:50.41 at the Texas relays. Not satisfied, they posted a 3:49.96 at their home meet for a third record-breaking performance. The latest time puts these Trojans as the 26th fastest relay team in the nation! Absolutely unreal. Congrats, ladies! #5AFriday #Athletics

The site visit at Jenks Middle School this morning was quite the adventure!
First, Dr. Butterfield visited Mr. Porter's room for a fun gravity and solar system experiment. From there, we stopped by the woodshop to observe students' using a saw to build a set of steps. Our last stop was in Mrs. Taylor's health and wellness class where students were observing nutrition facts on snacks to determine which was more healthy. Thank you, teachers, for letting us into your classrooms today!

The Jenks Public Schools Board of Education voted to approve Thursday, June 1 as the last day of school for students inΒ the 2022-23 school year. June 2 was the original last day of school on the instructional calendar. Because JPS used four of the five weather days built into the instructional calendar from January 30-February 2, the last day of school for students is shifted from June 2 to June 1.
Friday, June 2 will be a teacher workday at elementary and secondary sites.
Thank you!

After putting many after-school hours, dedication, and hard work into the robot they designed and built from the ground up, the Jenks High School Robotics Team- the Prime Movers- are set to compete in the Green Country Robotics Regional this weekend. These students are gaining experience like none other that will present excellent opportunities in their future. Good luck, Trojans!
