🎉 1,067! MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! WE HIT OUR GOAL! 🥫

Amazing news! On the 67th day of school, Jenkins Middle High School achieved a phenomenal goal, collecting 1,067 CANS for our community food drive! 6-7!?!?

This tremendous effort was a collaboration that showcased the incredible generosity of our entire student body, staff, and families.

A HUGE thank you goes out to the JMHS Bible Club for spearheading this initiative and to every single class that participated. Your dedication and hard work mean that so many families in our community will have needed food this season.

Thank you for showing what great things we can accomplish together!

Student Success Navigator, Amanda Johnson, worked with kindergarten students in Ms. Savannah’s class on a hands-on STEM activity inspired by The Three Billy Goats Gruff. Students designed and built a bridge to help the billy goats safely cross and avoid the troll, practicing problem-solving, planning, and early engineering skills.

🐍 Wild Success! Thank You, Zoodles Animal Encounters! 🐒

What an incredible day of learning! The students at Jenkins Middle School had an awesome time with Zoodles Animal Encounters, getting up close and personal with some truly amazing wildlife.

Our students loved meeting the animals and were completely engaged in the hands-on lessons about biology, habitats, and conservation. It was a memorable way to bring science to life right here in our gym!

Zoodles provides this fantastic educational program to our school completely free of charge thanks to the revenue generated from their optional animal photo orders.

If you would like your student to have a memorable picture, please return the photo order form that was sent home (extra forms available in the office).

Look at the engagement from 2nd graders in Mrs. Cantrell’s class exploring Geometry! Students used marshmallows as vertices and pretzel sticks for lines to create shapes. We are learning to recognize and draw shapes with specific attributes such as triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, and cubes through fun, hands-on exploration bringing Geometry to life!
