Jeannette Junior High School continues to work to ensure the safety and security of all staff and students. This is a top priority each and every day. All students at Jeannette will now be required to wear and have visible their school ID badges at all times. Wearing of ID badges is required as part of many workplace environments, as well as post-high school education, college, and university campuses. Furthermore, the wearing of student IDs provides easy identification of students for teachers, substitutes, district staff personnel, and law enforcement if ever needed.

The TEAMS chat and call features are available ONLY for communication to teachers and staff and to be utilized during class meetings. This is the same for all platforms/apps that act as a communication tool. Students can set up group chats but are limited to homework and school-related content. Students are not to add any additional apps or extensions unless authorized by a staff member. Please feel free to check your student's laptops to be sure they are using the laptops accordingly.
