Jackson-Reed High School Class of 2023 Families,

We hope that everyone had a good summer break and that you are ready for a great senior year! As your Class of 2023 PTSO parent representatives, we look forward to providing helpful information as you and your student navigate the final year of high school. As in previous years, we will publish monthly e-mail newsletters and stay well-synched with the Jackson-Reed 12th grade team led by Assistant Principals Camille Robinson and Ronald Anthony.

To get the year started off right, below please find important information regarding how to be prepared for the first day of school, including required COVID-19 testing and the staggered arrival schedule on Monday (8/29) and Tuesday (8/30). Also included is information about course schedule changes and senior portraits, as well as details on upcoming college preparation workshops and other important reminders.

As always, we encourage all families to continue to monitor the Jackson-Reed HS (jacksonreedhs.org) and DCPS (dcps.dc.gov and dcpsreopenstrong.com/) websites, as well as the Twitter accounts for Jackson-Reed HS (@JacksonReedHSDC) and the Jackson-Reed PTSO (@JacksonReedPTSO), for updates, particularly regarding upcoming events. Please also feel free to reach out with any questions or issues that we can help to address in support of the success of our students and school community.

Here’s to a great senior year for the Class of 2023!

With warm regards,

Michele Heller and Jason Orlando
