The Jonesville Community School Board will have four openings this year. There are three trustee positions and one secretary position. The deadline is July 26th by 4:00 pm. You can either come to JCS central office at 115 East st. to get a petition and signatures, or go to the county clerk's office and pay $100. Be sure to check the terms because they are different. Come be a part of the great things going on in JCS! Go Comets!
Comet families! Jonesville Community Schools has been in conversations with the Cascades Conference about moving to their league. Last week, they extended a formal invitation to the Cascade Conference. I am well aware of the history that Jonesville has with the Big 8 and this is not a decision to be taken lightly, so we have had small committee meetings with community members and staff about this potential move.
We would now like to extend an invitation to the larger community about this. We will be holding a Q&A on Tuesday, June 21st for families interested at the Jonesville High School at 6:00. Please come with any questions you may have.
This is an exciting opportunity for JCS, but I want to be sure that all questions and concerns are answered before a formal decision is made. We hope to see you then! Go Comets!!!
Congratulations to ALL of our precalculus students for passing the CLEP test!
These students have the opportunity to receive credit at the college level as a result. For example, Seth Shafer, a graduate of the Class of 2022, will be attending Trine University in the fall and has already received credit for the precalculus before even stepping foot on campus.

Congratulations to our students who were chosen as students-of-the-month for May!
FFA hosted Food for America on Friday, May 20th! Food for America is a National FFA program developed to teach younger students about Agriculture. This year the Jonesville FFA chose the themes, Tractor Implements and Uses, Farm to Fashion, and Sustainable Farming with Recycling. Greenmark, Inc. donated three tractors for the event. The elementary teachers signed up for a specific time to bring their classes to the FFA barn. Once they arrived, the students were separated into groups and rotated through the three lessons. They were then given the time to visit the animals, climb into the tractors and learn roping skills. The FFA members spent the entire day teaching and assisting the younger students in order to improve agricultural advocacy.
The Class of 2022 participated in their senior walk on Friday, May 20th. JCS is excited for the the walks of each of our graduates as they venture their new paths.

Our Peer-to-Peer group celebrated a successful school year of building new friendships by going bowling! A big thank you to the Molinaros and L & J Lanes for their hospitality, we had a wonderful time and more memories were made.
Abstract Life
A Creative Collaboration
Jonesville High School Advanced Art Class collaborated to create this amazing artwork from recycled frames. Each artist applied their own creativity, personal connections and sense of significance behind what Life in the Abstract means to them. They then problem solved together how to construct with balance, movement and thought given to all of the organizational principles of design and elements of art.
Thank you to County National Bank for this opportunity and support of the arts and our artists.
