Bears of the Month:
January Bears of the Month!
Congratulations to Austin Archer & Russell Ebbert for being recognized as our January Bears of the Month at SJHS!
Chromebook and Laptop Use Reminder:
Parents and students, this is a reminder that the Chromebooks provided to every student at SJHS is the only acceptable device for school use. We are no longer a bring your own device school, the chromebooks have been purchased and provided to every student in order to provide an equitable and safe learning environment at SJHS with devices. With that being said, we need your help parents in making sure your student is coming to school everyday with a fully charged chromebook. We do have a small number of devices that can be loaned out to students daily for emergency purposes, but this supply is limited and we are exceeding this quota daily. Your assistance and help with this will be appreciated moving forward, especially with semester exams coming up Jan. 26th-28th, where chromebooks will be the only device utilized for exams.
Thank you,
Mr. Blomgren
