Jenks Swimming is THE STANDARD. Another dominant meet for the Trojan boys as they cruised to the 6A State Championship at the Trojan Aquatic Center. That's five titles in the last six years and now 22 overall for one of the most successful programs in the state in any sport. The boys were also crowned Co-Academic State Champs. The Girls Swim Team capped off another impressive season with a State Runner-Up finish. Congrats to all Trojan swimmers and coaches!
***REMINDER*** Monday, February 19, is a Professional Day for JPS employees and there is NO SCHOOL. Enjoy the three-day weekend, Trojans!
A huge thanks to Lori Fullbright for closing out the Jenks High School FCCLA Week: Acts of Love activities. Lori talked about her career over the years and offered positive ways to care for yourself and others. We appreciate you showing up and supporting our Trojans!
Just married! 💍🤍💐
Jenks East Elementary kindergarten students attended an eQUsite wedding this morning uniting Q and U together as one. Mr. Glaze officiated the wedding and there was even a reception with cake, bubbles, and dancing to follow. What a creative and uniQUe way for these tiny Trojans to remember the "qu" spelling rule.
Rock on! 🤘🎻🎸🎼
All JPS 4th graders spent their morning rocking out with the Tulsa Symphony! Students engaged with Carnegie Hall's Link Up program by bringing their recorders and playing along side the orchestra. This year's theme explored the different sounds and rhythms that allowed students to discover how the orchestra truly rocks! Thank you, Jenks Public Schools Foundation, for making this experience possible for our students through the Growing through the Arts initiative.

Game on! 🏀
Jenks Middle School Student Council hosted a JMS staff vs. student basketball game this afternoon. Both teams dominated on the court, but JMS staff came out on top, defeating their students by one point. Even the halftime performances by Pom, Cheer, and the teacher dance squad were a slam dunk! Incredible effort, Trojans!

JPS Parents & Guardians,
Due to freezing rain, hazardous road conditions, and unsafe access to JPS buildings, Jenks Public Schools will be closed on Monday, January 22. Tomorrow is a traditional snow day. It is not a distance learning day. All Community Education programs are canceled for Monday and the Early Childhood Center will be closed. All activities and athletic events scheduled for Monday are canceled. This day will have to be made up at the end of the school year by utilizing a weather day on the instructional calendar.
Tomorrow is a traditional snow day because this round of winter weather is a short-term event and will likely only last one day. The event last week was predicted to affect multiple school days and therefore, distance learning days were used.
Plan on school being open on Tuesday unless you are otherwise notified.
Thank you!
JPS Administration
