Principal's Message
Greetings Jackson-Reed Community,
I hope this message finds you well and everyone had an enjoyable weekend. We are in the final full week of the school year, and I have just a few reminders as we start the week.
Family members of the seniors, this week is senior clearance. We look forward to all our graduates arriving at their assigned time to complete clearance activities and attending the required graduation practice on June 14th. Please review the messages and information our senior class team has been sending and posting to the website. If you have any questions about graduation or clearance events, please contact our dedicated senior class Assistant Principal, Mr. Bargeman, or your dedicated senior class School Counselors, Dr. Singletary-Robertson, Ms. Ligon, or Mr. Gillion.
Families of 9th , 10th, and 11th grade students it’s important that students complete and submit their term 4 assignments to ensure they are eligible for promotion at the end of this year. Many of our amazing educators are still holding office hours and students are encouraged to attend to get extra help and assistance to reach their academic goals.
