Danny Jones Middle School

We are the Electives Family at Danny Jones Middle School. We teach a wide variety of subjects that teach student’s real-life skills that promote a healthy life style, knowledge, skills, career skills and much more. We strive to find and build students strengths and skills that might not be obvious in their other classes. We want students to recognize and embrace their passions and interests.

As a staff, we want to have relationships with students and parents. Please check Skyward and Canvas regularly, and email us with any questions. Tutoring is offered for our subjects, so please reach out if it is needed.
