Scholars in Mrs. Eason’s class and Mrs. Henderson’s class worked together to complete a science experiment. In this experiment scholars were able to see how a parachute works. When the cups are falling, gravity is pulling both cups toward the ground. However, the plastic bag parachute filled with air that pushed upward on the parachute (air resistance) and made it fall more slowly than the other cup. #wearejms
August 29th was National Lemon Juice Day. Mrs. Henderson's class made fresh squeezed lemonade and a lemon cake with lemon icing to celebrate! #wearejms
Mr. Case's AVID class is doing a unit on making a good first impression. Today they practiced how to give a proper handshake. The activity they used to practice was called a "Handshake Train". They had a blast collaboratively practicing proper handshake etiquette.

Take a look at our weekly newsletter and be in-the-know of what your students are learning about in their content classes and some of their elective classes. Like, comment, and share. #weareJMS
Happy birthday to Mr. JT. We are so happy to have him here with us to offer support to all our scholars! #wearejms
Mrs. K, our media specialist, is super excited to check books out to our scholars here at JMS. Scholars can checkout 2 books at a time and keep them for 2 weeks. We are so glad these scholars are reading! #wearejms
Coach Gilliland's classes built index towers to build teamwork. They had to find common interest and got 1 index card per interest. They then had to build their towers and see which group built the tallest tower.
Scholars in Coach Gilliland's class are making sure they know how to be safe, respectful, and responsible here at JMS by learning and teaching others about our JMS Behavior Matrix.
Thank you to Mrs. Eason's class for supporting our teachers this week!
JMS would like to send out a big THANK YOU to Pershing Dental Clinic for toothbrushes, toothpaste, and floss for the donation to the counselors' office Take What You Need cart! #wearejms
