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,

Today, the students in grades 3–6 began taking the PSSA tests. Below is the schedule of testing dates. Please make every effort to have your child in school and on time these days.

  • English Language Arts: Grades 3–6 – April 21–23
  • Mathematics: Grades 3–6 – April 28–29
  • PSSA Science: Grade 5 Only – April 30

The Nutrition Group does a wonderful job with our breakfast and lunch programs at the elementary and high school buildings. All students eat for free this school year! Please encourage your child to eat breakfast andor lunch each day in our cafeteria (especially on PSSA testing days)!

If you are picking your student(s) up from school as a car rider, I would also like to remind you NOT to arrive before 2:00 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.

Sincerely,

Judy Allegretto

Judy Allegretto
Principal
