October Updates
The first 6 weeks have come and gone! UIL try outs and practices are well under way and our 6th grade robotics group has already had their first meeting. Students have enjoyed attending our pep rallies. We love seeing all of the excitement and school spirit on Fridays! Interim testing and benchmarks will be happening this 6 weeks, we are looking forward to seeing how much our students are growing! Great things going on at JNI! Take a look at all of the happenings below.
It's Always a Great Day to be a Jim Ned Indian!
