Hello North Jefferson Families!
Just a reminder: being "chronically absent" means that your child has missed 10% or more of their school year-regardless of the absences being excused or not. This status tells us that the amount of school your child has missed can put them at risk of falling behind academically and socially.
The good news is, there is still time to turn this around. Sending your child to school as consistently as possible can remove this status and get them back on track!
If you have any questions or need help brainstorming, please reach at to Addison Tucker at: addison.tucker@k12.wv.us or call at (304) 728-5361

JCS Families,
Jefferson County Schools will operate on a modified Non-Traditional Instruction Day (NTID) on Monday, March 16. All evening activities are canceled.
This decision was made after monitoring the weather throughout the weekend and consulting with the National Weather Service Charleston, WV, office this evening. Forecasted severe storms, including high winds up to 80 mph, heavy rain, and the potential for tornadoes, are creating too much uncertainty to plan for either an early or standard dismissal tomorrow afternoon. Keeping students at home helps us avoid putting them or our staff in harm's way.
What This Means for Your Student:
- Students will not report to school tomorrow and will complete their learning from home.
- K–5 students will find assignments and information posted in Rooms, as we did not send devices home for Canvas access.
- 6–12 students should follow the normal NTID process and connect with their teachers through their usual platforms.
- Teachers and staff will be available to support students from 9:15 am – 12:00 pm.
All LSIC meetings scheduled for tomorrow are cancelled and will be rescheduled. Math Field Day has been postponed to Wednesday, March 18.
Thank you for your understanding and partnership as we work to keep everyone safe.

Good morning North Jefferson families. The work on our main foyer project will begin this afternoon, 2/24/2026 and continue until our flooring tile installed.
If you are dropping off your child(ren) after 8:50 or picking them up early you will need to buzz in at the main entrance to announce you are here, then go to Door 3 (Parent Drop Off/Pick Up area) to sign out and pick up your child.
Respectfully,
Joyce Ashworth
NJES Principal

Dress your best! Thursday, February 12 is our Friendship Dance! If your child turned in their permission slip, they will stay after school from 3:45 - 5:30 to dance, play games, and share a fun time with their friends.
