Upcoming Events in Our Schools
Did you know?...
We have a parent resource room located in the lobby of Board of Education! In it, we have books, manipulatives, activities, etc. available to checkout (just like the library!) to assist you in providing extra academic support at home. The Parent Resource Room is open M-Th 8:30-3:30 and Friday 8:30-2:00. Stop by and check it out!
Get Involved..... Volunteer!
Want to get involved, but don't know how? Apply to be a volunteer in JCCS schools! A few examples for volunteer opportunities could include working the book fair at a school, helping out at a PBIS celebration, helping at field day, or working the concession stand or ticket booth at an athletic game. If this sounds like something you might be interested in, you can view the requirements to become a JCCS Volunteer and apply to volunteer at the link below!
