📢 Important Update: Jenkins Independent Schools Calendar Adjustments 📢
Jenkins families, we appreciate your continued flexibility as we navigate this winter season. Having utilized our allotted NTI and "bank days", JIS is taking a proactive approach to ensure our students meet their required instructional time while protecting the end of our school year and SUMMER BREAK!
To ensure our final day for students as Tuesday, May 26th, we will be converting the following dates into traditional school days (in-person attendance expected):
Presidents Day: Monday, February 16
Spring Break: Monday, March 30
Spring Break: Tuesday, March 31
Spring Break: Wednesday, April 1
Looking Ahead:
We will continue to evaluate the calendar moving forward, with the hope that we’ve seen the last of the "unfortunate weather"! Our top priority remains balancing high-quality educational time with the well-deserved summer break for our JIS families.
Thank you for your patience and for your commitment to our students' success!
Go Cavs!

Great News, Jenkins Family!
After checking road conditions and clearing a couple of turnaround spots, we’re excited to share that school WILL be in session tomorrow in Jenkins!
We will operate on a 2-hour delay to allow extra time for thawing and to ensure our students are picked up safely in the daylight.
We can’t wait to welcome our students back and see those smiling faces tomorrow! It’s going to be a great day to be a Cavalier!
Please help spread the word, and we’ll see you soon!
There will be no school on Monday, February 9, due to hazardous secondary road conditions. After assessing road conditions, several hollows remain unsafe for bus travel.
With warmer temperatures expected on Monday, we are hopeful conditions will improve and that we can return to school soon.

Four years. Four winning seasons. One goal. ⚔️🥎
We are so proud of the sustained success the Lady Cavs have shown under Coach Joe Banks. From a strong 17-win start in 2022 to last year’s gritty 15-8 finish with big District victories, this program has proven it knows how to win.
Every year has been a stepping stone, and as we head into 2026, the momentum is at an all-time high. With our seasoned vets and some exciting youthful talent ready to ignite, this is the year to watch!
Let's get behind our Girls and Coach Banks as they chase greatness. GO CAVS!
