MAVERICK NEWS

Hello Maverick Families,

We are excited for a new school year! Jobe’s focus has always been “Positive relationships and Quality Instruction.” One of our top goals is to empower our students to cope with the spectrum of emotions each year brings. We, also, recognize each student faces different challenges and anxieties. We look forward to building strong positive relationships with our students to encourage personal growth and help them reach their potential. Students are the reason we are here. Thank you all for being a part of the Jobe Family.

Sincerely,

Joseph Harmonson

Linda Jobe MS Principal
