Jim Ned Intermediate News

2024 is officially here! We hope you had a wonderful break with family and friends and are rested up and ready to get this new year started. I asked our teachers to come up with a word that will help guide them through this year. I encourage you to take time with your students and ask them what their word should be for 2024. I chose the word JOY. I want to find more JOY in the things I get to be a part of and enjoy just how special even the smallest moments can be. We are eager to see your students tomorrow and can't wait to get this semester started!

It's Always a Great Day to be a Jim Ned Indian!

Mrs. Winter will continue character talks with students this semester. January's character trait is DETERMINATION.

Last semester, character focus was RESPECT, RESPONSIBILITY, CONFLICT RESOLUTION and

SELF DISCIPLINE. Teachers and staff will be on the lookout for students showing the ability to work through struggles in a peaceful way.

The JNCISD Transportation Department has communicated new Bus Behavior Expectations and Consequences. They can be found on our district website or by clicking here.

If your student is a bus rider, please continue to remind them of their behavior while on the bus. We want to keep everyone safe. Behavior concerns on the bus are reported back to student's home campus and consequences will be given. First offenses result in a 5 day bus suspension.
