Welcome to
the 2018-19 school year!
Tomorrow
August 30th is the first day of school. Please arrive to school before
7:55am. If you are driving your student to school please use the parent/guardian drop off area accessed by the driveway closest to Look Park. We
know that readjusting our schedules to school time can be a challenge for us
all. Make sure to get a good night sleep and eat a hearty breakfast. Our key word
for the next few days is flexibility! The JFK PTO is here to support our whole
JFK school community of families, students, teachers and staff. Please contact
us anytime at jfkmspto@gmail.com. We are here to help!
