JMS Halloween Activity Night
The JMS Halloween Activity Night will be held on Friday, October 28. There will be a DJ, games, karaoke, and concessions available for purchase. All students are invited to participate in a costume contest. Costumes must be a non-violent theme and need to be appropriate for middle school.

The 6th grade activity night starts immediately after school until 5 pm. 6th grade students will have time to change into their costume after the school day, before the activity begins. Costumes are not allowed during the school day. Tickets for 6th graders will be sold at Door #58. 6th grade students need to be picked up in the East Pool lot by 5:15 pm.

A message from the principal
Reminder, No School for Students
Reminder that there is no school for students Thursday and Friday, October 20 - 21, due to the Minnesota Education Association (MEA) break. Get out and enjoy the nice weather that is in the forecast.
Drop-off & Pick-up Before and After School
A reminder to all families who need to drop-off and pick-up students before and after school.
For the safety of all our pedestrians and bikers, please remember to keep speeds under 10 mph when driving through our parking lots. The Jackson east pool lot is the only on-campus drop-off and pick-up area for Jackson families. Families cannot use the west campus lot due to busing and shuttle vans that need access to that area.
