Hello JJMS Families,
Thank you for a great school year. Summer break has arrived, and I wish all our families a fun-filled summer. Please take this time to recharge and enjoy time with family and friends!
Though at the beginning of the year we were still managing the hour-by-hour changes from the pandemic, we have spent most of the school year enjoying art performances, sporting events, field trips, cross-grade, and program activities, and bringing families back into the building. We have come so far because we came together as a community and worked together during this difficult time.
I will say this every time I get the chance... I cannot thank everyone enough –students, parents, staff, faculty - for the endless hours of doing whatever was necessary to support our students socially and emotionally this year - both in and out of the classroom. I also want to offer a special thanks to our PTO, who, as usual, went above and beyond the call of duty to provide whatever was necessary to add to our students’ already rich school experience here at John Jay Middle School.
To our eighth graders! Congratulations! There’s no doubt, your middle school years were challenging, and you persevered! I will miss seeing you in the hallways, but I am looking forward to hearing about your successes and achievements at John Jay High School! Always remember that the student and person you are today is a representation of all the small moments, both successes and challenges, in your life.
I hope everyone has a safe and happy summer break. See you on September 6th!
In partnership,
Jeffrey Swiatowicz
