A Message from the Administrative Office....
Welcome to the 2018-19 School Year!

Today your child came home with our directives for drop-off and pick-up.

Students in Grades 3 through 8 came home with the Technology User Agreement. Please have you and your student(s) complete and return to school.

Some of you stopped by the Food Service table at Unpack Your Backpack and received the directives for EZSchoolPay. If you did not pick these directives up that night, you will receive a hard copy at Parent Open House. If you need your child's ID#, contact Kim Armetta at 309-793-7366 or karmetta@jordanschool.com

At Parent Open House you will receive more news and updates about our 2018-19 school year. We look forward to seeing all of you there!

Please walk with us on September 3rd at the Rock Island Labor Day Parade. Click below for more information!
