From the Principal, Mr. Smithers.....

Please remember to stay active in your parish. Giving back to your parishes helps the parishes give back to the schools. We are all one giant system with a lot of moving parts, but we all have the same common goal of providing the best possible faith filled education for our students. 
Account Balances
Effective January 1, 2017

All families with outstanding balances in excess of $1,000 at the end of a given quarter, will not be allowed to have their children attend Jordan until an arrangement and/or payments are made on the account by contacting the business office. This pertains to tuition, library, lunch account and fees that are not in good standing. If a family has a negative lunch balance, they will not be allowed seconds or a la carte in the cafeteria. While arrangements and payments are made with the business office, a meeting with the Principal will be required before students are allowed to re-attend.
