Committees and Events

We are fortunate to have an active PTO that benefits every student by providing numerous educational and social activities. These events for your children and beloved staff can not take place without your help as a PTO member. There are many opportunities for volunteers to support and enrich our Junior Jacks' experiences. We'd love for you to be involved!
