Principal Message - November 9th

Happy Fall! Really needing a jacket in the morning can hurt my feelings, but it has been a lovely and generally sunny transition to November. I hope you and your families are enjoying it.

Poppin' Good Fundraiser

Starting November 9th thru the 13th, Jahn families are invited to sell popcorn through a Double Good Popcorn virtual fundraiser. It's still 100% contactless, we still keep 50% of ALL sales, and the same delicious popcorn ships directly to the buyer.

Empowering Creative Thinkers

 
Our students are the center and soul of our school. At Jahn, we strive to empower them to be lifelong learners and use the arts as communication, creative personal realization, connectors of culture and history, a means to wellbeing, and community engagement.
