A message from Principal Casperson

Congratulations Crimson Bear families! You have made it through the school
year. This school year marks the first full year post-pandemic without disruption,
adjustment or delay. Your student(s) navigated orientation, freshman first, four
academic quarters, countless spirit days, and a myriad of other high school routines
throughout the year. Give them a pat on the back, or a high five, or even a hug. We
did it!
Many of our students are attending summer school in one form or the other. If your
student is enrolled in live-time summer school our JDHS session begins on June
1st. These are full days, and attendance is mandatory. For students enrolled in a
PLATO (online) class, the lab will be open M, W and F for tests. All other work can
be done independently. The goal for all summer school attendees is to wrap up their
course before the end of the academic year, which is June 30th.
Based on your feedback we will make some adjustments to our communication
systems beginning next school year. Our daily bulletin will continue to be daily, but
the focus will be solely on student communication items. You as parents can still
subscribe so that you see what your kids see, and we will continue to post the link to
the bulletin on our website for reference. Our home newsletter will be issued
quarterly next year, in an effort to cut down on the repetitive information you are
already receiving via the Friday Message. The newsletter will focus on big picture
items and news. Finally, the Friday message will continue. It will be directed at
students and families and the focus will continue to be on information for that week
or the upcoming week. Your feedback indicated that the current Friday message
format (text, email and voicemail) is meeting your communication needs so we will
sally forth as we have been.
Mark your calendars for the fall Orientation dates now - we all know summer break
will go far too quickly. Last names H-O are August 7th, last names P-Z are August
8th and last names A-G are August 9th. Each day there are two windows of time to
attend, from 9-11 and again from 12-2. Freshman First day is scheduled for August
14th and the first day of the school year is August 15th. Check your mailboxes mid-
July - your back to school packets will be there before you know it!
Thank you for the opportunity to work with you and your students. It is truly a joy to
be at JDHS.
