ALL TREATS THAT ARE BROUGHT TO SCHOOL NEED TO BE STORE BOUGHT AND UNOPENED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION.

Thank you again for all the wonderful canned foods that we have collected during Kindness Week! In total JWES contributed 320lbs of food. For further contributions, please contact God’s Storehouse – Food Distribution Center on Main Street. (785) 230-3153.

As basketball season begins, please help us keep a safe environment by having your children either sitting at the tables in the HS commons or with you in the bleachers and not playing running games like tag or chase. Let’s all cheer on the Tigers to a victory!

REMINDER: To avoid a truancy report, please call your children in absent every time they will be gone (unless otherwise approved). Students not called in are marked Unexcused. State statute is 3 unexcused days in a row, 5 unexcused in a semester, or 7 unexcused in a year and the school must report the child as truant. Thank you for this help.

Jefferson West provides a free voluntary daily testing for Covid-19. Parents may request their student, quarantined as a close contact, be voluntarily tested with an antigen test so that they can Stay, Learn, and Participate at school and school activities with a negative test. Students who may be experiencing Covid symptoms may also be tested.

Where: South stadium parking lot by the Varsity Locker Room

When: Monday thru Friday from 7:00 AM to 8:15 AM or until the request for tests are completed

Process: Walk up to the tester with a signed permission form (for first time testing at JW). Once the permission form is on record another is not needed, unless the parent has rescinded the permission. Tester will swab the student, and results will be available approximately 20 minutes after completing the test.

Due to COVID: 1. We are not using the drinking fountains. Please send your child/children with a

refillable water bottle. We have filling stations available.

2. Students will only be allowed to ride their assigned bus(s).
