Welcome back letter for the 2023/24 school year!
Tom and I were meeting with someone yesterday at Williams Elementary about the playground and he mentioned how well maintained the campus was. He said other schools could learn from us because most of the schools he visits don't look like ours. I agree! I want to thank Roger Strait, our grounds/bus driver, for all of his hard work that makes our campus beautiful. He was out there early this morning as well. Thank you!
Open enrollment is now going on for Pathways! Call 849-7304 for more information on our virtual program with the personal touch!

Comet Community! We will be switching our June 12th study session from Jonesville Middle School to Jonesville High School. It begins at 6:00. Elite will be presenting the bond proposal that the bond committee worked to develop. Hope to see you there!
JCS gives thanks to all who have made the greatest sacrifice to our nation. On a day filled with family and friends, please take a moment to remember those who are no longer able to.
Comet community! I wanted to update you on the bond progress. We finalized the scope of the bond on Tuesday. We had to have 75% or higher agreement for a project to be approved and were able to have 83% agreement with our final vote. We will present the bond proposal to the board at our June 12th study session which will be at the Jonesville Middle School library at 6:00. I hope you are able to make it out to see what is included. There are a lot of needed projects being addressed and needed updates including safe and secure entryways.
I am still taking questions for my "Lessons with Les" series that we are going to do. This is a time for Les Hutchinson and myself to answer community questions with a video series. Here is the link to post YOUR question: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/FG5TYDK
Last night, the City of Jonesville awarded citizen of the year to three former Jonesville School alum: Dr. Leising, former teacher and current volunteer at WES, and Hayden James and Carson Laney who are 2020 graduates. Their stories of gratitude and service was a model of what the award is about. Though I did not have the pleasure of knowing the two graduates, it was clear the reason they were awarded youth citizens of the year. Congratulations and Go Comets!
We have been overwhelmed with shed requests!! The JCS community is awesome!! Thanks to so many of you who have expressed interest in supporting our Trades classes. At this time we have more than 20 requests for sheds!! I wish we had the time to build them all. Hopefully, you will have more opportunities to support our program. Our students are excited to build stuff. Next year we hope to have more students who want to do that. But at this time we are at our limit (and then some). The pricing comes down to materials and discussions with the client on what they feels is a fair price. Thanks! Go Comets!
Good evening Comet families! This is just a reminder that tomorrow Friday, March 10th is a half day for all students. Please make arrangements accordingly. Have a good night and go Comets!
Good evening Comet families! I'm sorry for the late message but our last issue was just resolved. We are good to go for school tomorrow. Thank you for your patience and we look forward to seeing your student(s) tomorrow!
Good afternoon Comet families! A quick update on where we are at. Internet is up and running at the schools. JHS/JMS are both good to go. WES is having issues with the heat. We have people working on it but that's as much as I know right now.
I want to thank Tom, Vern, Lucy, and others who helped keep the power going and moving food around so it wasn't spoiled. There were quite a few people who have been working to try to get our kids back in school. We are lucky to have them!
I will give you another update when I know something more definitive. I hope you are all well!
Good evening Comet families! I hope this message finds you safe and well, though I know we are in different states of “well”. In looking at the outage map for Consumers, it does not look like we are going to be ready to go by tomorrow so we will not be in session tomorrow Friday, February 24th.
I know this time has not been easy for you all and I hope it gets better soon. We will see our Comets on Monday, February 27th. Stay safe and stay warm
