Jackson Families,
It's a little more challenging to keep our minds on the learning this time of year, but we'll do our best. And we'll sprinkle in some fun including the Warm Things Tree, 3rd Grade Skating Trips, December Challenges, Spirit Week, Hat Day and Holiday Parties!
Please remember to dress warmly every day!

With your permission, MaryAnn Grady and Julie Davis will present the Grade 5 Project REACH program to 5th grade students on Monday-Thursday (12/12-12/15). R.E.A.C.H. stands for (Resources Encouraging Adolescent Character & Health). Mrs. Grady will facilitate sessions for boys and Mrs. Davis will do so for girls.
This is an optional program and only those students with parent/guardian permission will be included. Look for a hard copy permission form coming home Monday, 12/5. Please complete and return the bottom portion to indicate whether or not you want your child to participate. Students who opt out and those who don’t return a permission slip will be in another room during the presentations.

DAILY SCHEDULE
8:20 - Arrival~Cafeteria breakfast or to gym. (Breakfast $1.50; milk 50¢)
8:50 - Tardy after this time. Students report to the office for a late pass.
3:20 - Dismissal begins with pick-ups and first buses called.
Drop-off time is no earlier than 8:20am. If you arrive before that time, you must park in a marked space and wait. There is no parking along the south sidewalk in the morning or afternoon because long lines block buses exiting the driveway as private vehicles enter.
Dismissal begins at 3:20pm for students. Please park in a space in the south parking lot and walk to the sidewalk to greet your child and escort him/her safely to your vehicle. We do not load children into your vehicle at curbside since long lines block exiting bus traffic.
Please call/send a note if your child's daily transportation routine changes. We check pick-ups off our list before sending them out the doors.
IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW
- Entering JIS: Ring the buzzer by the main door of the building and wait there so the secretary can see you in the camera. The office staff will ask you to state your name and reason for visiting Jackson before buzzing you in. All visitors must turn right and immediately check in at the office window.
- We ask parents to remain at the office window when dropping off or picking up students. We will call your child to the office for you so please do not go to the classrooms as teachers can't stop teaching to communicate with you. If you have a question or concern for your child's teacher, our office staff will have the teacher contact you during his/her planning time.
- School Arrival Time: No student should arrive at school prior to 8:20am. The school day begins promptly at 8:50am. Arrival after that time is considered tardy and will require a late pass to class from the office.
- Student Pick Up: Please have a picture ID available each time you wish to pick up your child during school hours. Our secretaries recognize many faces but not all. Those picking up students must be listed on your child’s registration or emergency information. This is for the safety and protection of your children. Thank you for your understanding.
- Dismissal Changes: Student dismissal plans or changes should be submitted to the school secretary in writing or by phone by 2:30 p.m. We must have communication from parents/guardians.
- Pre-planned absences: Please request a pre-planned absence form if your child is going to be out of school due to family vacations or trips. As a reminder, each day counts as 6 hours of attendance and those hours will accumulate as absences per House Bill 410. If you have questions, please contact the school or your child's teacher.
- Birthdays: Food is not permitted to celebrate birthdays. You may send non-edible items such as pencils, stickers, bookmarks instead. Please communicate with your child's teacher beforehand. Birthdays are announced daily and students receive a birthday book.
LANCER PRIDE~KONA ICE DAY!
Our next Kona Ice Day is Friday,1/13/23. The names of 30 students who earn Lancer PRIDE certificates each month will be pulled to receive a free Kona Ice during lunchtime.
We want every student who wants a treat to have one so if you'd like to make a cash donation to our Kona Ice Fund, please send it to the office and we'll use it with gratitude!
All Jackson students have the opportunity to make a purchase as well. If you send money with your child, it's a good idea to keep it separate from lunch money in an envelope/baggie clearly labeled with his/her name, homeroom, and Kona Ice.
PROGRESS BOOK
ProgressBook is our online grade book. Log in to stay up-to-date on your student's grades and assignments.
