Kona Ice will be here on Wednesday for all lunches.

6th graders are expected to have their Chromebooks at school every day. If a student does not bring his or her Chromebook to school, he or she will receive a lunch detention.

Please remember, we have an empty water-bottle policy at Andrew Jackson Middle School. Students are not allowed to bring open bottles containing any liquids. If they do, they will be asked to pour it out at the water fountain, where they will then be allowed to refill their bottle.

Parents, when in the car-rider line, please pull forward as directed by the teachers directing traffic. Your student will only then walk down to where you have been directed to stop. This is to assist with the flow of traffic through the line.

September is Attendance Awareness Month. We will celebrate great attendance all month. Every Friday in September, the homeroom with the highest number of students present and on time will receive a special treat during lunch. We want to recognize these students and award them for being present and on time every day. Remember: attendance matters!
