What better treat than KONA Ice, even during this cold, snowy season? ❄️🍧

Some classes have moved online and others may make the same transition due to the pending snow. Please check your JCTC email for information!

Current forecasts are calling for 1–3 inches of snow, with locally higher amounts possible 🌨️. Snow is expected between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m., which could create slick and hazardous road conditions impacting the safety of bus travel and student drivers 🚌🚗.
Due to the timing and expected accumulation, we believe utilizing an NTI Day is the safest decision for our students and staff. Our staff members will not report to the buildings, but they will be in contact with your child regarding the day’s expectations.
