Our annual JCS Arts and Crafts show is coming up on Saturday, November 5!
Kitchen Committee Request!
The kitchen committee for the Fall Arts and Craft Fest needs your help! As our tradition goes, we will be preparing and serving BBQ, ham on bun, and pumpkin bars during the Fest. You can help by donating the ingredients needed to make all this food. Linked is the list of ingredients needed. If you are willing to donate, please fill in a slot (or more) on the Sign-Up Genius. This is an easy way to help school without a major time commitment. All donations will need to be to Lindsay Wohlford's first grade classroom (122) by the end of the school day on Wednesday, November 2.

The Key Card/Book sale for the JCS middle schoolers has been a success so far! The end of the month is coming soon so please get your final order forms in by October 31 (next Monday). The office will continue to sell key cards past this deadline, but if you'd like to support your middle school students' end of the year experiences, next Monday is the finish line. If you are not planning on selling, please return the Key Card/Book bag that was given to each middle school family at the beginning of the month to your homeroom teacher. If you have any questions, please contact Payton Ponstein.

If your elementary or middle school child will be absent from school (due to illness, dr. appt. etc.), it is very important to call the absentee line at 457-3307 and leave a message or email the attendance line at attendance@jenisonchristian.org. Teachers may not have read email or seesaw before taking attendance and therefore the absence is not reported to the office. Also, if you need to pick up your child for an appointment, etc. you will need to come into the school office and sign them in/out on the ipad that is on the front counter.
-
If you have a preschooler that is going to be absent, you do not need to call into the main office, please just email your child's teacher.
-
Important Reminder Regarding Illness: If your child is sick, please keep them home until they are completely symptom free (fever, vomiting, diarrhea, etc.) for 24 hours. If they test positive for COVID, we will follow the same guidelines (symptom free for 24 hours to return). JCS encourages you to follow CDC and local health authority recommendations for returning to school in cases of COVID-related illness. We will notify classes if there is a positive case, but there will be no requirements for quarantines or close contacts.
