JLS Back To School Night is Tomorrow, Wednesday, August 28, 5:45-7:40 PM.
Join us for our annual Back To School Night! This event will be in-person at JLS. Parents will have the opportunity to meet all of their child’s teachers and see classrooms.
Special notes:
-
Please keep in mind that this is an adult-only event.
- Parking is limited. Plan to park in the nearby neighborhood and walk into campus, or ride your bike to JLS. JLS Parking lots will be limited to JLS Staff and parents with disabled placards.
Here are a few reminders to make tomorrow a successful first day: Waverley Driveway is closed to students and parents (No student drop off on JLS campus, due to construction). See our safe route alternatives.Students should bring a backpack to carry belongings: supplies, lunch, water bottle, phone and/or smartwatch. 7th and 8th Grade JLS students: bring your charged Chromebook, and combo-lock for lockers. All families: Double-check your schedule on IC to confirm your student's PRIME classroom, where students will begin and end their day tomorrow.
Welcome to the 2024-25 academic school year! The staff and I are proud of our school, our exemplary programs, and the learning experiences we create for students. At JLS we share high expectations for ourselves as well as for your children – our students. Our mission is to educate and nurture all students in ways that will assist them to discover their potential as young adults. We value and appreciate partnering with you to make 2024-25 a fabulous year!!
With all the excitement that comes with the end of the year, we want to be sure you are aware of some of the JLS closing procedures.
I hope your week is wrapping up smoothly - it's a busy time of year! This is a reminder that today's Principal's Coffee is a celebration of all JLS Parent Volunteers. We hope you can join us on the JLS patio between 8:45-9:30 AM to be honored, as well as connect with school staff and other parent volunteers.
Next week we have a special Bell Schedule. We made this change to accommodate our celebrations (6th and 7th Grade Parties, and 8th Grade Great America Field Trip) and have equal time across our period lines. Please note: JLS Students will be dismissed at 1:45 PM on Monday, May 20, 2024 instead of 2:30 PM - the typical Monday dismissal time.
