Dolphin Update
Jones Dolphins Make a SPLASH!
Our Learning Community...
A heartfelt thank you to all who joined us for our Military Child & Family Appreciation Ceremony on Friday. It was a truly moving event, filled with beautiful displays of gratitude and recognition for our military-connected students and their families. We are honored to celebrate your strength, resilience, and service.
As a school community we are thrilled to announce that we have met our Math Wildly Important Goal (WIG) two months ahead of schedule! Our students have worked so hard and we could not be prouder. To celebrate this achievement, we are having a whole-school Pajama Day this Wednesday! Let’s get cozy and celebrate together!
As a reminder, the application window for the 2025–2026 PrimeTime Program opens Monday, April 14th at 8:00 AM. If you are in needed of before/after school childcare next school year make sure you apply. Please remember that all families must reapply for the new school year, even if your child is currently enrolled in PrimeTime. In the past, families had to complete multiple steps, including paper forms, to apply. This year, it is a single digital step, pre-populated via PowerSchool and processed through TransACT. Families who submit their PrimeTime application by Friday, May 2, at 9:59 pm PST, will receive a notification by the end of business day on Friday, June 6, 2025 via email of the status of their application.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out!

*San Diego Unified anticipates additional funding to expand program access for all interested families, pending Governor Newsom's May Budget Revise, so it it our hope that we will not have a PrimeTime waitlist next school year!
