Remind your high school students, grandparents, and other relatives who deliver and pick up your children, to use the car line for morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up. Morning temperatures are getting colder. JES doors open at 7:30 a.m. to allow students in the building. The car line does take a few extra minutes of your time, extra staff members to make it possible, and some patience from all of us. Your child’s safety is worth it.
