We made it, Trojans! Have a safe and happy summer! We'll see you in August. 😎☀️👋 #JPSLastDay24
On your mark...get set...GO!
Jenks West Elementary staff put on their running shoes and their best inflatable costume to race each other this afternoon! Nothing like a little run for fun on the last day of school!
Let the last day of school festivities begin! 🎉😁
Jenks Southeast Elementary had their last House Team assembly this morning, and it got a little messy! They revealed the winners of the last quarter and the overall winner of the year, which resulted in a teacher from the blue and purple team getting slimed! Afterward, students lined up on the track to give a fun farewell to all JSE 4th graders. What a great way to start the day, JSE!
We couldn't let the year end without recognizing the next wave of young writers! Students Jenks East Intermediate recently became published authors by participating in #NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writers Month) for the first time. With the help of Media Specialist Shelbee Chamberlin and Gifted Teacher Jamie Powers, these students wrote every word, went through an extensive editing process, and even designed the cover artwork themselves. Now these books are available for all students to check out and read in the JEI library. Nothing like seeing your hard work pay off!
Find something you care about. ✔️
Research the issue. ✔️
Educate yourself and others. ✔️
Fourth graders at Jenks West Elementary held their annual Exhibition today and showed off their passion for solving a wide range of real-world issues. The students presented facts, findings, and solutions for topics such as poverty, hunger, bullying, animal abuse, endangered species, environmental protection, and many more! By caring and taking action, these students are working to create a better community and a better world. Nice work, Trojans!
Jenks High School Vocal Music had their third annual JVM Signing Day this morning. Seniors signed their autographs and celebrated their next steps in their academic careers whether or not they are pursuing a degree in the arts. Congratulations, Trojans! No matter where you go or what you do, you will always be #ForeverATrojan. 🎼
Jenks Northwest Elementary 2nd graders shopped until they dropped this morning! 🛒🛍💵 Students have been learning about money and were given *pretend* money to buy food and goods from local businesses like Chick-fil-A, Andy's Frozen Custard, Crumbl Cookies, McDonald's, Sam's Club, Raising Cane's, and Hideaway Pizza! After spending what they had budgeted, they enjoyed their treats! Great job making this hands-on experience happen, teachers!

Today, Jenks East Elementary 3rd graders experienced Lyric Theatre's interactive performance of Oklahoma. Before the curtain opened, these Trojans were belting the state song! 🌾 This production not only taught students history about our state but also gave them the experience of live theatre. One lucky JEE student even had the opportunity to play Gertie- and she did amazing!
Thank you, Jenks Public Schools Foundation, for making this Growing Through the Arts Initiative for all 3rd graders possible!
4 days until the Jenks High School Class of 2024 walks across the stage! 🎓
