Johnsonburg Area Elementary School

Welcome to Johnsonburg Area Elementary School. Learning and fun go hand in hand in our preschool through sixth-grade classrooms. We are a community of caring, dedicated professionals who work together to bring about the academic and personal success of every student in our care.

At JAES, students, parents, and teachers are all on the same team. Weekly communication packets support that team spirit by sharing information about upcoming events and samples of your child’s schoolwork. Watch for your child’s packet on Tuesdays.

A Message From Our Principal

Dear Johnsonburg Elementary School Families,

Happy new year! I would like to remind you to create or review your emergency plan for your family. These plans should include what your child should do in the event of a school cancellation, a school delay, or an early dismissal. It is also important that each family has a working phone number so that the school can communicate with you in case of an emergency. Contact my office if you need to update any information or add an emergency contact and/or number.

All absences will be recorded as illegal absences until a written excuse is received (within five (5) days. This written excuse is important. Not sending an absentee form or note within five (5) days of your child’s return to school will result in an illegal absence.

We are having a huge safety concern for our drop-off and car rider students. The speed limit in our parking lots is 15 mph. Slow down and be alert when in our driveway and parking lots. Also, make sure they are safely and properly buckled into their car seat/booster with their seatbelt. We want all students to be safe and obey the state law.

It has been brought to my attention about the students’ behavior at the bus stops and on the buses. Remind your children to keep their hands and feet to themselves. It is very important that the students stay at the designated bus stop and do not run across the streets when the bus is approaching the bus stop area. This is a huge safety concern for all our students.

Sincerely,

Judy Allegretto
