We have a few friendly reminders this week...

Please complete your LCFF form in PowerSchool Parent Portal or via the SurveyMonkey link in an email sent to you from San Diego Unified. Completing the survey is essential to ensure Jones Elementary receives as much funding as possible. Parents/guardians should respond only once per child. The information is kept confidential and only used for allowed purposes.

We are also in need of two more parents or community members to join our SSC/SGT committee. If you would like to nominate yourself, please email our Elementary School Assistant Jenna Greif at jgreif@sandi.net

Also, Picture Day is just around the corner! It will take place this Friday! We look forward to seeing everyone's smiling faces!

If you have any questions about LCFF forms or Picture Day, feel free to reach out to the school office at 619-605-8800.

Fall Festival planning has already started and we’re brewing up a fang-tastic event and need fearless volunteers to help make it a night of frightful fun! Here’s how you can join the Jones Elementary Fall Festival.

• Trunk-or-Treat Hosts: Transform your trunk & thrill the trick-or-treaters.
• Festive 50/50 Raffle: Pay to play and win BIG!!
• Pumpkin Patch & Painting: Let little goblins pick their perfect pumpkin and get creative with spooky painting fun.
• Festive Fall Photo Stations: Snap some eerie-sistible photos at any of our 3 photo stations
• Setup and Cleanup Crew: Help with setting the scene for a ghostly good time and clearing the cobwebs when the night’s over.
• Mysterious Donations: Contribute to our cauldron of goodies and spooky supplies

From the bottom of our haunted hearts, thank you for being a part of this bewitching experience.

Here is a link to the San Diego Unified Food Services Website where you can find allergy and nutritional information on foods served at schools. Foods not found on our regular school site menu will be listed individually under the "Alternate Menu Items" section.

If you ever have general questions about the food services at school sites you can reach out to foodandnutritionservices@sandi.net. To connect directly with the Jones Cafe Manager you can email jonecafe@sandi.net (yes, that email is correct, there is no "s").

San Diego Unified is dedicated to fostering a vibrant, informed, and engaged community through the power of education and dialogue. To help our students to be collaborative communicators, socially-aware agents of change, and critically-thinking digital citizens, our nonpartisan SD Unified for Democracy project offers resources to develop skills to engage in civil discourse, identify bias and credibility, debate and maintain a focus on issues, and repair harm that arises from political rhetoric.

The link below offers resources and tools adults can use to engage with and learn alongside children and teens during the election cycle and beyond.

Our mission is to ensure ALL students meet or exceed grade level expectations through rigorous, high-quality, standards based instruction in a safe, nurturing, collaborative learning environment where all students are preparing to be global citizens, college and career ready.
