Good afternoon, Jaguars!


It’s time for another great week at Jenkins Elementary! We have so much in store, so please scroll through this week’s Jaguar Journal for important details and reminders.

We’re kicking off Red Ribbon Week with the theme “Make a Difference: Be a Hero and Stay Drug-Free!” We encourage our Jaguars to participate in each day’s dress-up theme:

  • Monday: Red Out! Wear red to show your commitment to staying drug-free.

  • Tuesday: Team Up Against Drugs! Wear your favorite team shirt or jersey.

  • Wednesday: Sock It to Drugs! Wear mismatched socks.

  • Thursday: Be a Superhero! Break out those capes and show your commitment to making healthy choices.

  • Friday: Jaguar Spirit Day! Wear your Jenkins Jaguar spirit wear.


Our Trunk or Treat community event is Monday, October 26! Bring the family for a vendor fair, a visit from our community fire department, carnival games, a dunking booth, and plenty of fun! Students may wear costumes to the evening event. For the school day, please follow Monday’s Red Ribbon Week theme and wear red. We look forward to seeing our families come together to support our campus!


Also on Monday, our prekindergarten students will visit Old MacDonald’s Farm! As a Title I campus, we remain committed to providing meaningful experiences that help students explore and connect with the world around them.


On Thursday, October 29, we have our Bilingual Spelling Bee and Second Cup of Coffee parent event. Join us for grab-and-go breakfast, parent workshops, and an update on our progress toward this year’s campus improvement goals. We value your voice and partnership!

We’ll wrap up the week with Big Kahuna delivery on Friday, October 30. If you placed an order, please review the information in this journal for delivery and pickup details.

Families, your support makes a difference. Please check your child’s backpack, review schoolwork and campus communications, and stay connected with your child’s teacher. We have important goals to reach, and we cannot do it without you!


I remain excited and proud to serve as your principal. We have the best teachers at Jenkins Elementary, and together, we will continue striving to become the best elementary school in Spring ISD.


Let’s make it a great week, Jaguars!

Los estudiantes pueden usar disfraces para el evento de la tarde. Durante el horario escolar, deben seguir el tema del lunes de la Semana del Listón Rojo y vestir de rojo. ¡Esperamos ver a nuestras familias reunidas para apoyar a nuestra escuela!

Familias, su apoyo marca la diferencia. Por favor, revisen la mochila de sus hijos, sus trabajos escolares y los comunicados de la escuela, y manténganse en contacto con sus maestros. ¡Tenemos metas importantes que alcanzar y no podemos lograrlo sin ustedes!


Sigo emocionada y orgullosa de ser su directora. Contamos con los mejores maestros en Jenkins Elementary y, juntos, seguiremos esforzándonos por convertirnos en la mejor escuela primaria de Spring ISD.

Prop A Community Meetings -OCTOBER 28 Prop A Community Meetings -OCTOBER 28

What is Proposition A? Spring ISD Proposition A t is a local funding election, also known as a Voter-Approval Tax Rate Election (VATRE) that allows voters to decide whether to approve a tax rate that would generate additional funding for the district’s day-to-day operations, while simultaneously unlocking additional state funding from the State of Texas. Unlike a bond, which pays for buildings and construction, Prop. A would fund the ongoing costs of running the district. Learn more: https://propa.springisd.org/

¿Qué es la Proposición A (Prop A)? Es una elección de financiamiento local, también conocida como Elección para la Aprobación de la Tasa Impositiva por parte de los Votantes (VATRE), que permite a los votantes decidir si aprueban una tasa impositiva que generaría fondos adicionales para las operaciones diarias del distrito y, al mismo tiempo, permitiría acceder a fondos estatales adicionales del Estado de Texas. A diferencia de un bono, que financia edificios y proyectos de construcción, la Proposición A (Prop. A) financiaría los costos continuos de operación del distrito.
