Calling all Dads, Grandpas, Uncles and Male Guardians of our students at Jackson High, Jackson Pathways, Middle School at Parkside and Fourth Street Learning Center! We hope you can join us for our Chili & Chill For Dads Event at The Martin Luther King Center on Adrian Ct. on Wednesday, December 11th from 5:30-7:30 pm. Please see the attached flyer for more information and how to RSVP for the event. See you there!

Just a reminder that our day begins at 7:20am with doors opening at 7:00am. Students who have a pattern of being late to school and classes without a medical excuse will be referred to our attendance coordinator for further review. After 7:35am, students are only allowed to exit and enter the building via the Welcome Center.

Cell phones and headphones are to be kept off and away while students are in class. Coats and backpacks including totes and purses are to be kept in lockers during the day. Please remind your young person of these very important JHS policies.
