Jersey 100 Families. District buses are finishing pickup from each of our schools and will be delivering students home. It looks like buses are running about 1 hour behind.
Jersey 100 buses are back on the road. The time is 3:55 pm.
Jersey 100 buses are currently unloaded and the students are sheltering at one of our school buildings. Once the storm passes we will begin delivering students home.
JCMS wrapped up our 6th Annual *One Book, One School* event on Friday, April 24—and what an incredible experience it was!
In just two days, all students and staff came together to read *Alone* by Megan Freeman. Classrooms dove into meaningful extension activities, and 23 students were selected for our VIP Book Club, where they read the companion novel *Away*.
We were honored to welcome Megan Freeman to JCMS. She began the day by participating in our career fair, speaking with small groups of aspiring authors, followed by a special VIP lunch, engaging presentations for each grade level, and a book-signing to end the day.
It was a powerful celebration of reading, connection, and community—one story bringing us all together. 📚

Our West Elementary 1st graders had the best time learning how to protect our planet today. A big shout-out to Bayer for making this hands-on learning possible! 🌿

Ms. Beauchamp's first grade class has a TEACH student from JCHS, Savannah Hetzel. Ms. Hetzel did a lesson with the class of reading her favorite book "The Giving Tree" and doing a kindness activity with them. They made leaves and wrote kind things they can do to be like The Giving Tree. Then, she created a bulletin board featuring the students art work. Thank you Ms. Hetzel!
JCHS Life Science and Earth Science students got to attend an incredible field trip to Pere Marquette State Park. Activities included: hiking, fishing, canoeing, and wildlife.
Many thanks to our lead coordinators, Mrs. Jayne Binolis (JCHS) & Mr. Scott Isringhausen (Pere Marquette), for accommodating 100+ students for such a spectacular experience right here in Jersey County.
This Week in Jersey Activities
Our middle school career fair was a tremendous success, thanks to the generosity and enthusiasm of 32 presenters from our community. Each volunteer took time out of their busy schedules to share valuable insights, experiences, and advice, helping our students explore a wide range of career paths and possibilities. Their willingness to engage, answer questions, and inspire curiosity made a lasting impact on our learners. We are deeply grateful for their time, energy, and commitment to supporting the next generation.
Big news! 🎉 For the 4th year, JCMS has been recognized as a Capturing Kids’ Hearts® National Showcase School! This honor reflects our deep commitment to building a culture where relationships come first and every student is supported to succeed.

🎉 National Student Leadership Week Recap at JCHS 🎉
This week at JCHS, students showed what it means to lead with purpose, kindness, and service-- by celebrating National Student Leadership Week. Sponsored by National Honor Society and in existence since 1983, the week highlighted the impact of positive leadership—from thanking mentors and uplifting peers to taking action through meaningful acts of service.
Students made a difference in both big and small ways, supporting one another and giving back to our school and community. We ended the week by celebrating our seniors and the lasting impact they’ve made, with donuts and Senior leadership shout-outs in the library.
NHS sponsor Mrs. Leslie added, "Together, these moments show that leadership is about serving others and creating a stronger community."

JCHS Book Club: Annual Visit to JCMS
The Jersey Community Middle School’s One Book, One School initiative is a powerful reminder of what happens when an entire school community comes together through reading. This year’s selection, Alone by Megan Freeman, sparked meaningful conversations around perseverance, resilience, and facing challenges head-on, and finished with an exciting culmination of an in-person author visit presentation with Mrs. Freeman.
What makes this experience even more special is the connection it builds beyond the middle school. JCHS librarian Mrs. Leslie also shares this book with her high school book club each year, helping to bridge the two schools, spark meaningful discussion, and to create a shared reading experience across grade levels. Several of those JCHS book club members accompanied Mrs. Leslie on a "field trip" today in order to listen to the author in person.
It’s inspiring to see how one story can unite students, spark discussion, and build a stronger community.
JCMS Student Council held the annual River Road Clean-Up to celebrate Earth Day. Students started at the Grafton Lighthouse to the Brussels Ferry and Brussels Ferry to Pere Marquette. Giving back to the Community we love and live in. 💙🐾
