More information, including guidance for parent access and key dates, will be communicated in the coming months. Thank you for your patience and partnership as we work to improve our systems in support of students and families.

This afternoon, JSH administration was made aware of threatening comments made by a student in a classroom. Administration quickly responded, initiating the SCS threat-assessment protocols, involving parents, and contacting law enforcement. It was determined that there was no immediate threat.
SCS will continue to work with outside agencies, follow our handbook policies and protocols and address this matter to ensure students and staff remain safe in our building.
Thank you for your continued cooperation and support.
