Everyone loves a birthday! 🎂The students of team 7.5 spent all week planning a surprise birthday party for Language Arts teacher, Ms. Reiter! They baked and crafted and organized themselves and pulled off the most epic surprise! They were so proud of themselves and Ms. Reiter felt so special and appreciated on her big day!



Save the date, 8th grade families!


We couldn't let the week go by without honoring our 4 amazing assistant principals! Lenna Coffman, Ray Weis, Megan Jackson, and Jennifer Blackshare work tirelessly for JMS students and staff. We have a great crew!

Happy Paraprofessional Appreciation Day 2024!
We could not run JMS without our talented Paraprofessionals. They are often the unsung heroes of public education--supporting teachers, classes, and students. JMS is lucky to have 17 Paras helping JMS students succeed.



IT IS OFFICIAL!
The Jenks Public Schools Board of Education voted to approve Tuesday, May 28 as the last day of school for the 2023-24 school year. June 3 was the original last day of school on the instructional calendar. Because JPS used only one of the five weather days built into the instructional calendar on January 22, the last day of school for students is shifted from June 3 to May 28. Wednesday, May 29 will be a teacher workday at elementary, intermediate, and secondary sites.
