Jim Barnes Weekly Newsletter

Parents Thanks for a great school year. 2024-2025 has come to an end and we are sad to see our 8th graders move on but excited about the new building, seeing our 6th and 7th graders return to get to enjoy the new fine arts wing and cafeteria. Our students worked so hard this year and when the results arrive next week, I know we will have lots to celebrate. Please have a safe and restful summer. Students will return to school Tuesday August 12th. Please keep an eye on Facebook and the district webpage as we will have a new parking lot and a change in traffic flow. Also, Jim Barnes Drive behind the school by our football will be closed to thru traffic and the road by Koennecke Elem. will also be closed permanently. I will send out the updated traffic maps in Early July.

Thanks again for helping make Jim Barnes Middle School a great place for students to excel. I hope everyone enjoys their summer break. I will see everyone back on August 12th. Remember we are One Team, Learning Together, Elevating Excellence. ¡Ole!

Remember the street in front of Koenecke Elem is shut down. Please travel to Barnes by coming on off of 467. The outside line is a through lane and the left lane is the turn in lane to JBMS coming from 467. Please try and avoid Barnes drive as the construction vehicles will be using this entrance. Do not park in the circle drive around Barnes. This is a fire lane and the city of Seguin will ticket you if you leave your car in that driveway. Drop off time begins at 7:30. But students will not be allowed into the building until 7:50. All students will enter by the gym doors in the morning. Parents may go in the main entrance if they need to speak to anyone in the office, but students will be directed to the gym doors. Pick up will be in circle drive starting at 3:40.
