🙌 October is National Principal's Month, and we’re taking a moment to celebrate Dr. Brown 🙌

Dr. Brown leads with vision and dedication, always putting students and staff first.

Thank you, Dr. Brown, for all you do to make Jenks Middle School the best it can be! 👏

📚 The book fair is coming! 📚 Our PTAG will be hosting the Scholastic Book Fair 10/22-10/29 in the JMS library. Each student will visit with their English Language Arts teacher. Create your child’s Book Fair eWallet so they can shop cash-free, worry-free, and independently! It’s easy to set up and easy for others to contribute funds!

Don't forget to set your alarm, JMS!

Happy Fall Break, JMS! 🍁

🎉 The last day of Spirit Week brought all the color! 💖🌈 Whether it was tie-dye, pink-out, or neon — our students and staff showed UP and showed OUT! 🔥✨ We couldn’t be prouder of the school spirit and creativity on display. Way to end the week with a bang! 💥

🎶 Our amazing 8th grade band brought the energy this morning—playing the fight song as students entered the building for Homecoming! 💥🥁 School spirit is strong at the middle school!

Thank you PTAG for bring the excitement today! 🤩 8th graders ALMOST beat the teachers in the Smashdown tournament today....ALMOST! 🏆Even Dr. Brown got in on the action after the students chanted for him egged on by Coach Glenn. 😋

Today our amazing staff surprised students with "Anything BUT a mug or water bottle" ☕️🚰and the reactions were priceless! 🙌💥 It’s all about keeping things fun, fresh, and totally unexpected. 1 more day of spirit week left!

💥🏆 SMASHDOWN 2025: 7th Grade Dodgeball Tournament! Our students brought the energy, the hustle, and the heat — but in the end, the teachers dodged, ducked, dipped, and dived their way to victory! 😎 Great sportsmanship and even better memories! 💪🎉

🎒❌ It’s Anything But a Backpack Day and our students did NOT disappoint! From laundry baskets to shopping carts, creativity was rolling through the hallways today 😂👏

🌈 Science is measuring up! Yesterday in Mrs. Swift’s 7-4 Science class, students practiced their measuring skills through the Rainbow Lab! Using graduated cylinders, they carefully measured different volumes of colored water to create their very own test tube rainbows. 🌈 This fun and colorful activity helped students learn how to accurately measure liquid volumes while practicing the metric system — specifically milliliters (mL). Great job, young scientists! 🧪✨

We couldn't pass up the opportunity to show more rhyme without reason spirit week photos! 🤗

🎭 Spirit Week fun continues with today’s theme: Rhyme Without Reason! From “witch and Stich” to “chef and ref,” our students got creative (and hilarious) pairing up in rhyming outfits that made zero sense—but total fun! 😄👏 We love seeing all the school spirit and imagination on display! 💫 Can you guess these rhymes? Comment on the picture if you know!!!

Today is the last day to buy your Smashdown ticket, shirt, or entry fee to play dodgeball! Help support JMS through this PTAG fundraiser.

JMS Health & Wellness teachers were invited to present at a state conference (OAHPERD - Oklahoma Association for Health, Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance). They got to share some of the amazing things happening in their department at JMS, inspire future educators, and network with other professionals.

Way to represent JMS Trojans!
