WE HAVE REACHED GOLD!

JAMS is officially GOLD in PBIS!

But what does PBIS stand for?

Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports

PBIS is a framework that helps schools create a positive, safe, and supportive environment by teaching and reinforcing positive behaviors, celebrating student success, and creating clear expectations for our school community.

At JAMS, we live out our CARE values:
Civility
Achievement
Resilience
Empathy

Reaching GOLD is a reflection of the hard work of our students, staff, and families!

Way to go, Bengals! GOLD looks good on us!

RAP — Where Students Learn, Grow & Thrive!
Our after-school program, RAP, is an amazing opportunity for our Bengal Tigers to stay active, engaged, and connected after the school day!
Through incredible partnerships, students have access to sports, clubs, tutoring, enrichment activities, and so much more! RAP gives our students a safe and exciting place to explore their interests, build friendships, discover new talents, and continue learning beyond the classroom.
At JAMS, we believe in creating opportunities where every student can discover their potential and know that they belong.
One School. One Community. Together, We Are Unlimited!💪📚🎨🏀
