The 2025-2026 school year saw the start of a new home for JCIB and the Trees - our new campus for grades 6 - 12 will provide an exemplary learning environment for students and faculty for years to come. We are very grateful to the district for its continued support and to our families and teachers/staff for making the transition with us.
Change is a vital component to growth and as this school year winds down, we are saying goodbye to three individuals who have helped guide and grow JCIB over the last several years. Ms. Lisa Floyd, office coordinator, Ms. Lori Lightsey, head of school, and Dr. April Miller, IB Coordinator, are all retiring. We had a surprise party after graduation (it was such a surprise that Ms. Floyd missed it) to help celebrate their time with us. Dr. Miller will be around some this summer if you need to get help with things - Ms. Floyd and Ms. Lightsey are more likely to be in their gardens - we wish them all the best and thank them for their years of commitment and service ...they know and will carry with them the knowledge that
"It's a great day to be a Tree!"
