📚✨ Second Grade Accelerated Reader Reward Trip! ✨📚 Our amazing 2nd graders earned a special field trip for their hard work in Accelerated Reader! Today they headed to Breaks Interstate Park for an exciting elk tour, where students learned about wildlife and conservation while spotting elk in the mountains. 🦌 After our adventure, we stopped at Poplar Gap Park for lunch and some well-deserved playtime on the playground. 🌳🛝 We are so proud of these students for their dedication to reading and learning! Huge shoutout to the Breaks staff and to AK's Barbershop for providing lunch from Papa John's! 📖👏 #AcceleratedReader #FieldTripFun #ReadingRewards

📚 Important Update for Kindergarten and First Grade Families!

Under Senate Bill 240, our school will use the MAP Universal Screener to help measure early reading progress for Kindergarten and 1st Grade students. These assessments will take place during the final 14 instructional days of the school year and help ensure students are prepared for the next grade level.

Student placement decisions will be based on reading benchmarks and readiness for the next grade, helping us provide the support each child needs to succeed.

Parent-Teacher conference notes were sent home with 2nd term progress reports. Teachers will continue reaching out to families to discuss your child’s progress. 3rd term progress reports will go home March 24th at Family Night.

If you have questions, please contact your child’s teacher. Together, we can support every student’s success! 🍎📖

🏆 BREAKING: Jenkins High School Achieves 100% ILP Completion!

For the first time in school history, 100% of Jenkins High School students have officially completed their Individual Learning Plans (ILPs)!

This isn't just a checked box on a list; it means every single one of our students has a mapped-out plan for their future. From career goals and college prep to resume building, our Cavaliers are officially ready for what comes after graduation. 🎓✨

Why this matters: The ILP is a roadmap for success. Reaching 100% shows the incredible dedication of our students and the relentless support of our faculty and guidance department who made sure no student was left behind.

We are so proud of our students for taking charge of their futures and setting a new gold standard for Jenkins High School!
