Good evening JCSD families, The Pennsylvania State Police conducted a safety check for registration, seat belts, license, etc, at Juniata Elementary School this morning. There were many cars present with lights on at the entrance to the school. There was no emergency at JES this morning. In the future you may see emergency vehicles at any of our schools throughout the school day. Sometimes they are just visiting and conducting a walk-through. Other times they are there for an emergency situation. Please know that in the event of an emergency we will provide information to you as soon as we can but there are times that it is not appropriate to send information out immediately. We will continue to work with our local law enforcement to ensure that our community is as safe as possible. Sincerely, Christie Holderman, Superintendent

As you are likely aware, there will be a solar eclipse during the afternoon hours of April 8th. However, its timing coincides with our usual dismissal times, posing a potential safety risk as students may inadvertently view the eclipse without proper precautions while leaving school or riding the bus and Guidance from PDE recommends early dismissal as an option for this event. To ensure the safety of our students, we have decided to initiate an early dismissal and suspend all afterschool activities until 5:30pm. This measure guarantees that all students will be safely home before the eclipse begins. All students will be dismissed at 12:30pm.
For information on safely viewing the eclipse, please visit https://science.nasa.gov/eclipses/safety/.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
Reminder: Friday, February 16, 2024 is an Act 80 day with no school for students. Schools are closed on Monday, February 19, 2024 for President's Day. Have a great weekend!
