Classroom and Field Trip Volunteers
The district has changed the process for how we volunteer this year. All volunteers need to fill out an application to volunteer through the district website. I am linking the website to the flyer posted below.
Even if you have been a volunteer at Jordan Ridge in the past, you will need to apply again this year. Moving forward, this will be the expectation - all volunteers must fill out the application every year.
If you have already had your fingerprints done you will NOT need to do them again but you do need to apply still.
In the application, you will be able to state if you plan to volunteer during times that you would have unsupervised access to students - for example, while on a field trip. You will only need to have fingerprints taken if you are planning to have unsupervised access.
This means all field trip chaperones will need to select the option that they will have unsupervised access.
Please fill out the application on the Human Resources Webpage as soon as possible so that you do not miss out on any opportunities to help in the classroom for parties or to go on field trips.
Jog-a-thon
Don't forget to gather those donations for the annual Jog-a-thon Fundraiser! The funds raised from this fundraiser provide so many opportunities for our students and our community. Please see the flyer below for what students can earn with their donations.
We also have the jogging schedule for Thursday, September 17th posted for when each grade level will run their laps.
Please remember all packets and pledge forms are due on Friday, September 18th. The PTA will pick them up from your students' teachers.
Dear Parents/Guardians,
We are very excited about the upcoming school year!
Registration for Jordan Ridge Elementary is an important step that must be completed each year for every student in your household. Please take this opportunity to update your student’s emergency contacts, allow students computer access, apply for fee waivers, update health conditions and provide us with many other important details. All students must be registered online, even if you are not new to Jordan Ridge Elementary. The process is quick and very easy.
In order to register your child, you will need to log into Skyward Family Access. Make sure that pop-ups are not blocked or the process will not work. You will be able to complete the registration process through Skyward. You can find instructions on how to navigate Skyward on the district website at jordandistrict.org under the Parents & Students tab. You can also find calendars and other information on this site.
The window for registration is open July 13th - October 1st.
Please make sure you print off any information you would like to keep. The system is available 24 hours a day.
Registration must be completed for every student attending Jordan Ridge.
This is especially important for updating emergency contacts.
Family Access is a great tool that families can use year-round. Save your login and password to use anytime for making lunch payments, updating phone numbers, emergency contact information and checking grades. However, the only time you can register your children for school is July 13th - October 1st. It is essential that parents follow the registration procedure for Jordan School District. Part of this process involves reviewing the school’s attendance policy, Code of Conduct, and updating student information. Parents will want to complete this process by the start of each school year.
School begins on Wednesday, August 19th for all students, including Kindergarten.
Teacher assignments will be available to view on Skyward after August 12th.
Back to School Night will be held Monday, August 17th, from 6:00 - 7:30 pm. We will hold introductions at 6:00 pm in the auditorium followed by an open house for students and parents to visit classrooms. Please come and meet your new teacher as well as our new principal, Michelle Lovell!
There will be a special Kindergarten welcome on August 18th from 10:00 - 11:30 am. This will be a time for our youngest learners to meet their teachers, see their classroom, and learn to navigate the lunchroom. Kindergarten teachers will not be available during Back to School Night on August 17th.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to call the school.
