For the 2021-2022 school year, Gahanna-Jefferson Public Schools will offer an online learning option for K-12 students. The Ohio Department of Education requires that districts choosing to provide this model include an in-person component in addition to the online curriculum. Details about the online learning model can be found in our GJPS Online Learning Guide.

It is important for families to understand that choosing the online learning model for your student(s) will be a yearlong commitment. Families choosing to opt into the online learning model will make their selection on a district survey that will be sent as soon as our mask decision is finalized and shared with the community.

If you have any questions after reading our Online Learning Guide, please feel free to contact our Assistant Superintendent, Jill Elliott (elliottj@gjps.org) or Director of Curriculum, Tia Holliman (hollimant@gjps.org).

Congratulations to Ms.Tia Holliman, GJPS Director of Curriculum, who was recently named the 2021 Junior Achievement of Central Ohio Business Hall of Fame Educator of the Year.

The annual Hall of Fame recognizes an educator who is pivotal to the work of Junior Achievement. The honoree partners with local employers to empower and inspire the next generation of leaders to own their future success through work-readiness, financial literacy and career preparation programs. These programs occur in the classroom, online, at Junior Achievement or an employer's facility.

Congratulations, and thank you for the work you do for our students!

Middle school students from around the district participated in a weeklong Orchestra Camp hosted by the Gahanna Lincoln High School Orchestra Department. Thank you, LHS student counselors and directors, for an enriching experience for our middle schoolers.

Kits are available for pick up for three days after completing the Rapid Test Request Form at the GJPS Administration Building, 160 S. Hamilton Road. Please ring the bell inside the front door for service.
