💜Day 2 Highlights of BUILDING A BETTER FUTURE🚧🦺👷Lets keep the spirit going! Join us tomorrow as we "Shine Bright and Go for Gold!" (Dress like an athlete/olympian and show off your medals 🏅)

Dear Families, Earlier today, a junior high student made a threat via text related to a school shooting and shared it with another student. That information was immediately reported to administration, and the school was placed on a Safety Hold. This allowed us to conduct security checks and begin an investigation without delay. The Sierra Vista Police Department was called to assist and the evidence was reviewed and substantiated, however there was never a gun on campus. Please rest assured that proper discipline procedures have been followed and consequences issued pursuant to state law and district policy. We understand that you may feel concerned about the timing of this communication. Please know that these situations are sensitive, require careful measures, and take time to handle appropriately. The safety of our students is always our top priority.   Thank you to those staff and students who reported this information to our administration to ensure the safety of our school. At this time, all students are safe and school operations have resumed as normal. Thank you for your understanding and support as we work together to keep our school community safe. Sincerely, JCMS Admin

Even a Vikings fan and a Packers fan can put aside their rivalry when it comes to learning! In Mrs. Davenport’s science class, students collaborated to tackle density problems, proving that teamwork and critical thinking are a winning combination. 🏈💚💜 🧪

Each year, on the third Friday in September, our nation observes National POW/MIA Recognition Day, a solemn reminder to honor those who were Prisoners of War and those still Missing in Action, and to rededicate ourselves to the promise of never forgetting them. Mr. Dunlap, our Social Studies Lead Teacher, collaborated with the local VFW to create a meaningful POW/MIA table display in the cafeteria. With the support of our Instructional Coach, Mrs. Everett, the table and accompanying information were carefully prepared to reflect the significance of the day. Students, drawn by their curiosity, stopped by to learn and reflect, gaining new insights into this important part of our nation’s history. 🇺🇸 🖤 .

The district previously sent an email reminder to families on August 21 regarding the ID requirement. Please ensure your child has their ID with them daily. All students were issued a school ID at the beginning of the year free of charge. If a student has lost their ID, a replacement must be purchased for $5 before they can ride the bus home. Please note, no student will never be left at a morning bus stop without a ride to school. Beginning Monday, September 15, students will not be permitted to ride the bus home without their school ID, and they will need to be picked up. Thanks for your support.
