On behalf of the JCN Board of Education, our staff, and students, I want to extend our heartfelt appreciation to the patrons of Jefferson County North Schools.
We are incredibly grateful to everyone who took the time to participate in the bond election. We received official notification from the Jefferson County Clerk’s Office today confirming that both bond questions passed. This outcome is a tremendous reflection of the support, trust, and commitment our community has in the future of our schools and, most importantly, our students. We recognize that community support is never something to take for granted, and we sincerely appreciate the confidence you have placed in JCN.
Your support is an investment in our students, our schools, and the future of our community. It allows us to move forward with addressing important facility needs, improving our learning environments, and providing safe, healthy, and supportive spaces for our students to learn and our staff to work.
Thank you for believing in our schools, supporting our students, and taking an active role in shaping the future of Jefferson County North. We are fortunate to be part of a community that recognizes the importance of investing in its schools and creating opportunities for the next generation.
Together, we are building a stronger future for JCN!
Thank you again for your trust, confidence, and continued support of Jefferson County North Schools.

Superintendent

Our 4th graders took an adventure on the Oregon Trail yesterday (11/9)!
Over the past couple of weeks, students have been learning about the Oregon Trail, their families, and building their own covered wagons. They had to carefully decide what supplies to bring, keeping a specific weight limit in mind. Every item mattered!
During our wagon train simulation, students encountered different scenarios and hardships that pioneer families might have faced along the journey. Unfortunately, the trail wasn’t easy! Only 2 out of our 5 families successfully made it to Oregon. The other 3 families experienced hardships that prevented them from reaching their destination.
Through this hands-on experience, students learned that the journey west required careful planning, tough decisions, perseverance, and a little bit of luck. Most importantly, they gained a better understanding of the challenges and uncertainties pioneer families faced as they traveled west.
DATE CHANGE: MS Girls Basketball Parents night has been moved to November 19th. Parents will be honored between the A and B games.
We hope to see you there!
MS Girls Basketball travels to Everest for their games this evening. The C Team will kick off our evening with 1/2 a game, with B and A to follow.
Games start at 4:30pm. We hope to see you there cheering on our Chargers!

Final update for JCN Cross Country. Saturday was the biggest meet of the year for the JCN High School Cross Country Team - State Cross Country at Wamego, a difficult course as anyone who has run it will tell you. The girls placed 10th as a team, running a great race. They were lead by Ella Seymour (46), followed by Rowan Robey (47), Madelyn Gerety (72), Adalynn Rice (85) Bailey Jenkins (88), and Aletta Borg (89). The boys were lead by Max Kane, our lone individual medal winner (12), followed by Scotty Roloff (54), Riley Ladesic (55), Caliber Beecham (61), Tucker Bryant (68), Sawyer Huff (83), and Judah Borg (91). The boys have been talking the entire season about bringing hardware home this year from state. They walked into the meet ranked 7th in the state, but knew they were better - they proceeded to accomplish something that has happened once in our schools' history - placing 3rd at the state cross country meet, winning a tie breaker to hold onto 3rd place, and narrowly missing 2nd. It was a remarkable end to an amazing season for all our runners - plenty of PR’s, both teams winning league, the boys winning regionals and the girls placing 3rd, and both teams qualifying and performing well at state, including a trophy! Thank you to all who have supported our team through the season, especially to those who made the journey to Wamego today to support our kids. None of this would be possible without you. The coaches are incredibly grateful to the kids, families, and community for all you do.
First grade had so much fun dressing up this week for Twin day, College day, and of course HALLOWEEN!
