Jones Jaguars Newsletter

Good Afternoon Jaguar Nation,

We had an outstanding week of concerts, basketball games, and wrestling meets across our campus. Thank you for continuing to support our students as they balance academics with extracurricular commitments. This week we championed all of our students who received the student of the quarter award selected by each of our teachers for being a REAL Jags (Respectful, Empathetic, Accountable, Leader).

Next week is a full instructional week, with students participating in finals and performance tasks as they complete the grading period. We will follow our regular bell schedule all week, including Friday, which will be a full day of school. Please ensure students arrive prepared, focused, and ready to finish the grading period strong.

Have a great weekend! Go Jags!
