💙💛 What a wonderful night to be a Jaguar! 🐆

Thank you to all of our Jenkins families who joined us for Open House! It was wonderful seeing our hallways and classrooms filled with smiling students, families, teachers, and staff as we came together to kick off another great school year.

We loved welcoming our Jaguars back, meeting new members of our school community, and sharing some of the exciting things ahead at Jenkins Elementary. We are so grateful for the families, faculty, and staff who make Jenkins such a special place to learn and grow.

Here’s to an amazing year ahead, Jaguars! 💙💛🐆

💙💛 Celebrating Members of the Jenkins Family 💛💙

*Videos are posted on our story*

As we close out another school year, we would like to recognize five members of the Jenkins family who are beginning new chapters:

✨ Ms. Lawrence
✨ Ms. Cooper
✨ Security Officer Singleton
✨ Ms. Coberly
✨ Ms. Patrica

Each of them has made a meaningful impact on our students, staff, and school community through their dedication, kindness, and service. Their contributions have helped make Jenkins a place where students can learn, grow, and succeed.

While we will miss seeing them in our hallways, we are grateful for the time they spent with us and wish them nothing but happiness and success in all that lies ahead.

Thank you, Ms. Lawrence, Ms. Cooper, Security Officer Singleton, Ms. Patrica, and Ms. Coberly, for everything you have done for Jenkins Elementary. You will always be a part of the Jaguar family! 🐆💙💛

A heartfelt thank you to our kindergarten teachers, instructional assistants, staff, and families for helping make this year so special. Your support, encouragement, and dedication have helped these young learners thrive.

🎉☀️ That’s a wrap on the 2025–2026 school year! ☀️🎉

Today, our Jaguars boarded their buses one last time as we celebrated the end of another amazing school year.

From the first day of school to the final bell, our students have learned, grown, achieved, and created memories that will last a lifetime. As they headed off for summer break, Jenkins staff lined the sidewalks to cheer them on and wish them a safe and happy summer.

We are incredibly proud of all that our students have accomplished this year and grateful to our families, faculty, staff, and community for their support throughout the year.

To our rising 5th graders, congratulations on reaching a new milestone. To our 5th grade graduates, we wish you the very best as you begin your middle school journey!

Have a safe, fun, and restful summer, Jaguars! We look forward to seeing you again in the fall. 💙🐾

Fifth Grade Promotion 🎓💙💛

Last night, we celebrated the promotion of our fifth-grade students as they completed their elementary school journey and prepared to take the next step into middle school.

The evening was filled with pride, excitement, music, and special memories as students were recognized for their hard work and accomplishments. Watching them perform, receive their certificates, and celebrate with their families was a reminder of just how much they have grown during their time at Jenkins.

To our fifth graders: continue to dream big, work hard, be kind, and believe in yourselves. We are incredibly proud of each of you and know you will do great things in middle school and beyond.

Congratulations, Fifth Graders! Once a Jaguar, always a Jaguar. 💙💛🐆

📚✨ Jenkins Authors Become Published Authors! ✨📚

We are proud to celebrate the publication of our very first student-written book, How to Be a First Grader! 🎉

Written and illustrated by members of our First Grade Sunny Smiles group and friends, with the support of Mrs. Shepard, this special book is filled with helpful advice, encouragement, and tips for success in school. ❤️📖

Today, our young authors proudly visited Kindergarten and First Grade classrooms, as well as staff members throughout the building, to present copies of their published work. Seeing students share their creativity, leadership, and accomplishments with others was truly inspiring! 🌟

This achievement began earlier this year when the Sunny Smiles group wrote, acted in, and produced an anti-bullying video for the NNPS Youth Development Department’s STAND Month campaign. Their hard work earned them the winning prize, and they chose to use those funds to bring their book to life! 🏆🎬➡️📚

A special thank you to Mrs. Shepard, Ms. Brown, and the NNPS Youth Development for supporting our students and helping make this incredible opportunity possible.

We are so proud of these young Jaguars for their creativity, leadership, teamwork, and dedication. Congratulations, authors! 🐆💙💛
