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,

On Tuesday, April 23, the students in grades third through sixth began taking the PSSA tests. Below is the schedule of testing dates. We want all our students to put forth their best effort! Please make every effort to have your child in school and on time these days.

  • English Language Arts: Grades 3–6, April 23–25
  • Mathematics: Grades 3–6, April 30–May 1
  • PSSA Science: Grade 4 only, May 2

All students are encouraged to eat breakfast at the school each morning before testing.

If you are picking your student(s) up from school as a car rider, I would like to remind you not to arrive before 2:05 p.m. Car rider dismissal will begin as soon as the buses leave the front of the building, which is about 2:25 p.m. Your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated.

It is extremely important for the school to be able to reach a parent/guardian with concerns or questions about our students. Parents are asked to provide and update all contact information and to have a working phone number so that you can be reached. This is an increasing problem and can be very upsetting when there is an emergency type situation. Contact my office if you need to update any information.

Sincerely,

Judy Allegretto
