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,

Thank you to all the parents and guardians who made it to your child’s conference last week. If you were unable to attend, please contact your child’s teacher so that a conference can be scheduled for you. Please remember that no report card will be issued for your child until a conference is held. Communication is the key to success. Continue to encourage your child to put forth their best effort. We appreciate your support!

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 very important that each family has a working phone number so that the school can communicate with you in case of an emergency. Please contact my office if you need to update any information or add an emergency contact and/or number.

It is important for your child to bring a water bottle to school. All the water fountains are equipped with a bottle filler that can be used to refill their water bottles throughout the day.

All absences will be recorded as illegal absences until a written excuse is received. Not sending an absentee form within five days of your child’s return to school will result in an illegal absence. Calling your child off in the morning is very helpful and a written excuse is required for all absences.

Sincerely,

Judy Allegretto

Judy Allegretto
Principal
