Jackson Elementary '21 - '22 Info
Central Cambria School District
Welcome Back
Hello Jackson Elementary Families,
On behalf of myself and the Jackson Elementary School faculty and staff, I would like to take this opportunity to express our excitement for our students' return on Thursday, August 26th.
It is hard to believe that summer flew by and we are gearing up for another school year.
Although there continues to be some unknowns with COVID-19, we are making plans to start the 2021 - 2022 school year as “normal as possible”. Our goals will remain the same as they always have been. We will provide the most effective and meaningful educational experiences for our students as possible, in a learning environment in which they feel safe and comfortable to succeed and prepare them for real-world experiences.
I believe we were able to accomplish those goals last school year with all the adversity we faced, and we have every intention to accomplish our goals again this year.
Please take a moment to read through the following newsletter as there are several important pieces of information regarding the upcoming school year.
If you have any questions regarding the upcoming school year, please do not hesitate to contact me via email at ddomonkos@cencam.org or by phone at 814-749-8421
It’s a great day to be a Red Devil!
- Mr. Domonkos
