8th Grade Achievement Night Program

The 2026 JMS 8th Grade Achievement Program will be held Thursday, May 21, 2026 at 7:00PM in the Black Gym. 8th Graders will need to meet in the Gold Gym at 6:15 for a class picture to be taken. We consider this a semi-formal occasion. Students should dress accordingly. Following the program until 10:00PM. the PTSO will sponsor a dance for 8th graders. Your child can bring clothes to change into for the dance, but they will not be allowed to leave and then return. Students may submit an Achievment Night speech by Thursday, May 14 for an opportunity to present during the program.

Lost and Found

Please have your student go through our lost and found areas before the end of the year! There are lots of coats, hoodies, water bottles, etc!

7th Grade DC Fundraiser Pickup

This will take place Wedenesday, May 20 at JMS. More details will be sent early next week.

eBikes and eScooters

School policy states that "Students are prohibited to operate motorized vehicles to or From JMS." The eBike craze has snuck up on us this year!! We realize that several students are now riding them to school and it has been a valuable transportation option for parents. We will allow this option for the last month of school, but we wanted to make parents aware that our policy will be enforced next year. We don't want parents spending money on an eBike over the summer anticipating that it will be allowed as an option next year. The same applies for the electic scooters.

Info from the JMS Nurse

Incoming 6th grade Parents/Guardians,


Just a reminder! The State of Indiana Immunization law requires all students entering 6th grade must receive a Menactra (Meningitis) and Tdap (Tetanus/Diphtheria/Pertussis) vaccination prior to the first day of school. Students not receiving the required immunizations may be excluded from school and the absences will be unexcused.

Please make an appointment with the Dubois County Health Department at 812-481-7050 for your child to receive the required vaccination.


To All Parents/Guardians,

If your child brought medication to school this school year: Rules and

Regulations prohibit medication from being sent home with students in grades K through 8. Unused medicine for students in those grades must be picked up by the student’s parent/guardian or an individual over 18 years of age with written authorization from the parent/guardian for medication pick up.

This includes all medications-prescription or over-the-counter. We realize that this may be an inconvenience, but it helps to ensure the safety of our students.

Medications may be picked up during school hours only, Monday-Friday from 8 am to 3 pm. Any remaining medication after May 22, 2026 will be disposed of per school policy.

Please feel free to call Jasper Middle School at 812-482-6454 for any questions regarding this matter.
