🍎 Nourishing Our Community: JIS Tackles Food Security 🥫
The entire Jenkins Independent School District community is working hard to ensure our students and their families have nutritious meals both in school and at home!
In-School Support & Weekend Meals:
We are thrilled to share that JIS students are currently receiving an extra meal each day during school hours.
Furthermore, our amazing cafeteria staff is dedicated to ensuring students don't go hungry on the weekends. Today, students have the option to take home:
A shelf-stable Hormel meal.
Weekend breakfast items to help stock the pantry until Monday.
Current Food Drive Challenge!
Complementing these efforts, the JMHS Bible Club Food Drive is in full swing!
Goal: Help us reach 1,067 cans (and non-perishables) to directly support local families.
Challenge: The class that collects the most cans wins a Pizza Party!
Every can donated and every extra meal provided shows the strength and care of the Jenkins community. Thank you for your support!

🚀 JMHS Students Are "On the Move" with Operation UNITE! 🧠
This week, Jenkins Middle High School was proud to host the "On the Move" program, presented by our partners at Operation UNITE!
Our students rose to the challenge, participating in interactive sessions focused on understanding the negative factors and risks associated with drug and alcohol abuse. It was a crucial and eye-opening experience for everyone involved.

🌟 JHS Students Get a Head Start on the SAT! 🌟
Jenkins High School is proud to be ahead of the curve in preparing our students for the future of college testing!
The state of Kentucky has selected the SAT to replace the ACT as the mandatory college admissions exam for juniors, beginning in Spring 2026.
JHS is already making the switch!
November 8th, our pre-registered students will participate in a special early administration of the SAT. This is a fantastic, pro-active opportunity that gets our students acclimated to the new digital, adaptive test format well before the required state testing window next spring.
While registration is now closed, we want to recognize and celebrate the initiative of our students and staff! JHS is committed to giving our students every advantage as they prepare for college and career readiness.
Keep an eye out for more information on future SAT preparation resources coming soon!
