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,

We will be celebrating “Kindness Week” this week. There are some planned activities that the students will be able to participate in. The students always enjoy these activities and themed days.

The Nutrition Group does a fabulous 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 and/or lunch each day in our cafeteria.

It has also been brought to my attention that there are concerns about bus and bus stop behavior. It is also a safety concern when the students are at the bus stop to be careful and cautious when near the road or crossing the streets. I would appreciate you talking to your child about safety and proper behavior that is expected.

Please make sure your children come to school dressed appropriately for the weather. Students should be wearing their hats, gloves, and coats that are zipped up. It is also important that the students do not arrive at the bus stops too early because this will increase the time spent in the cold weather. Make sure that you have a family emergency plan in place for the event of a delayed start, early dismissal, or cancellation. Remember that if school is cancelled due to inclement weather, all activities at our school are also cancelled.

Sincerely,

Judy Allegretto

Judy Allegretto
Principal
