Trojans across the District honored our nation’s heroes this Veterans Day. From Jenks Northwest Elementary to Jenks West Elementary, Jenks Middle School, and Jenks High School, students showed gratitude for the bravery and sacrifices of those who serve. Special thanks to Jenks Mayor Corey Box for speaking at the JMS assembly, and to all Veterans, thank you for your service!
Today, we pause to honor the brave men and women who have served our country. Their courage and sacrifice protect the freedoms we cherish every day.
Students across the District are finding their own special ways to say “thank you.” Later today, we’ll share those heartfelt moments as they show their gratitude and celebrate our heroes. 🇺🇸

Here’s a peek at some spooky (but mostly cute) fun for the feed! Jenks West Elementary students showed off their favorite characters in the annual Book Character Parade this morning. Happy Halloween, Trojans! 🎃📖
Another spectacular Buddy Baseball event this weekend at Hinch Field filled with home runs and high fives! The friendships and memories made from sharing the field together are simply irreplaceable and at the heart of this Jenks Trojan Baseball tradition for 19 years and counting. Thanks to the students, players, coaches, boosters, and fans for making this an unforgettable day on the diamond!
And the kids were runnin' runnin' and runnin' runnin'...Picture perfect day to take a lap (or 10!) at the Jenks West Elementary Jog-a-Thon! Thanks to all the teachers, staff members, and parent volunteers who make this event possible and take the time to cheer on our students. Shout out to the members of the Jenks Cross Country squad for showing up to run alongside and provide as many high-fives as possible!
Better than your average greeting! Jenks High School hosted the District 7 Student Council Convention today and 600 students from neighboring districts received a raucous reception from members of JHS STUCO, Cheer, and Pom.

Our Trojans are always leading the way!
