On October 13th (tomorrow), our seniors will take the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT).

The boys season will be from mid-October up to winter break in December. The girls season will be in January and February. Please contact Emma or Mr. Freeman if you are interested. Go Jays!

Good afternoon. At approximately 1:15 pm today, Jewell School's well was not able to keep up with the demand and unfortunately, we ran out of water. We have been supplying students with bottled water and hand sanitizer as needed. We plan to run our afternoon busses at the regular time today. Our High School Volleyball game against St. Paul has been cancelled and will be rescheduled. We will have practice afterschool for MS & HS Volleyball, HS Football and MS & HS Cross Country. We will NOT have any practice for the MS Club Football today. We have water delivery scheduled for the early morning and fully anticipate school will be in session tomorrow.

Happy Monday! I hope you have had a pleasant weekend. The Natal Grange will be open this Wednesday, September 8th, from 1-4 for anyone in need of some food assistance.

Good afternoon. Unfortunately, we will not have enough middle school football players to schedule interscholastic games this year. So, we are still hoping to keep any interested middle school football players, grades 5-8, on the field with Coach Veit for a Jewell School football club! Their first day of practice will be this Wednesday, September 1st, and they will practice every week after school Monday through Wednesday through the month of October. Please contact Emma or Mr. Freeman if you have any questions.

FYI Because of ongoing road construction on HWY 26 there may impacts on bus times for the Blue & Gold Routes. This is occurring in the morning only. If your student rides the Blue or Gold Bus and your bus is late to your stop, please be patient! If the bus arrives late at school students will still be given time to eat breakfast.
