On Friday in Mrs. Swift’s 7th Grade Science class, students became physicists for the day! Using a physics ramp, toy car, and weighted marbles, they experimented to see how mass affects the speed and kinetic energy of a moving object. Today, students will take their data and graph their results. What do you predict happens to speed and KE as mass increases?
Math took flight today! ✈️Mrs. Davis's 7th grade math students put their problem-solving skills to the test in a paper airplane contest. From calculating angles to testing aerodynamics, they discovered just how far math can go when you fold it into fun! Each class also had a celebrity challenger: Mr. Ratliff first hour, Mr. Rose second hour, and Mr. Weis fifth hour. Mr. Weis was the only successful competitor. 💪🏻
♟Is chess your "thing?" Come play a match with other students every Monday morning.♟
We are ready to welcome all of our 25-26 StuCo members tomorrow! See you bright and early!
Today at our JPS rally the Jenks Foundation honored 2 of our finest with the Vision of Excellence Award. Congratulations to Mr Porter, science teacher, and Mrs. Cook, counselor. They were recognized for demonstrating outstanding qualities of leadership, continuous improvement, customer focus, and teamwork. JMS is proud of you! Congratulations!
🌈Ms. Baker's class had a blast doing a Rainbow Lab today! Students practiced using lab equipment safely, learned the importance of following directions carefully, and got hands-on experience with lab safety. Great work, scientists! 🧪👩🔬👨🔬

Today in Mrs. Swift’s science class, students took on the Marshmallow Challenge! Using just 20 spaghetti noodles, 1 marshmallow, 1 meter of yarn, and 1 meter of tape, they had 20 minutes to build the tallest freestanding tower with the marshmallow on top. 🌟 Students quickly discovered it was trickier than it looked, but they had a blast working together, getting creative, and practicing lab teamwork. What a fun way to kick off the year and get to know classmates! Congratulations to our winning teams! 🏆✨
When the library bookmark (designed by a JMS student) matches the fit! 🙌
Is this life imitating art or art imitating life? 🤔
