Hello Longhorn Families,

We’ve had another awesome week here at JLMS, we appreciate the continued support and hard work from parents, students, and teachers. Here are some important updates and events for the upcoming week:

Football Game: This Tuesday, we have our first home football game. It’s a great time for our Longhorns to come together and spend time together. Fans can expect to enjoy the band, cheerleaders, and football team. We encourage all of our students to show school spirit by wearing JLMS gear on Tuesday. Kickoff is at 6:30pm and all students must be picked up by 8:30pm .

Volleyball Season: Our volleyball season kicks off Thursday with an away game at Pine View Middle School. Come out and cheer on our team!

State Mandated Testing: We are starting with the first round of State Mandated FAST testing for 8th graders this Thursday and Friday. Please ensure your child gets good rest and breakfast.

Device Policy Reminder: Thank you for all of your help with the use of smart watches, headphones, earbuds, or any Bluetooth speaker sound systems, which are prohibited. All cell phones are required to be turned off and put away during school hours.

Horseplay: Please discuss with your students the importance of avoiding horseplay. While we encourage fun, safety is our top priority, and we want to prevent any unnecessary accidents.

Thank you for your dedication and partnership in making Dr. John Long Middle School a great place to learn!

With Appreciation,
JLMS Administration
