JISD Cheerleading Tryout Notice
Due to the snow break cheerleading tryouts had to be postponed. After speaking with the administration today, looking at the calendar and considering the rescheduling of sporting activities/school work it was decided to move tryouts to March 4th. As a reminder to be eligible to tryout out, this years cheerleaders HS/JH need to turn in school issued clothing and students must pass the six weeks grading period since tryouts will now happen when our upcoming six weeks ends.

Jonesboro ISD will not have school Friday, Feb. 19th. While the roads might be clear, as of Thursday morning the school was still without water meaning pipes cannot be checked.
Monday, Feb. 22nd, will remain a staff development day. We will use this day to make sure all utilities are functioning properly at the school, get busses checked before routes, and all of the other things we need to do to ensure student and staff safety. We will also hopefully get our food deliveries!
While everyone’s utilities come back online, if you need assistance please reach out to a JISD staff member. We can come help or coordinate help. We all understand how tiresome this last week has been.
As for all of the sporting events postponed or cancelled, once the coaches get new arrangements made we will inform all the players and fans. I know I’m ready to sit in a WARM gym to support our kids!
We are all ready to return to normal. Miss all the faces at school!
Love you all!
Baseball update:
Sweatshirt order has been extended to Tuesday.
No practice until we return to school.
We will update everyone on the scrimmages once we have more information.
Due to declining weather, predicted storms for tonight and power outages JISD will be closed Wednesday and Thursday, Feb 17th and 18th. As the week moves on we will decide about school on Friday.
There will be no distance learning required for Wednesday and Thursday. The top priority is everyones safety. We understand that this week has been hard on many and school is not something that should cause stress at this time.
Love you all and if you need anything please reach out to someone at the school.
JISD will have another remote learning day, Tuesday, Feb. 16th. We understand that several people are without power and water. Please do your best with school work and communicate your situation with teachers.
If anyone is in need of anything please email one of the staff members and we will do our best to help. JISD is first and foremost family and family supports each other.
Love you all. Stay safe and warm!
