"Nothing is more important for the public welfare than to form and train our youth in wisdom and virtue.”
Benjamin Franklin

Greetings and welcome to the School District of Jefferson! I hope after you have taken the opportunity to explore our website, you will agree that the Jefferson Schools are following Benjamin Franklin’s words listed above. We truly strive for every student in our schools to gain not only academic success, but to develop and exhibit exemplary character as well.

The support that our students get from staff, their parents, and our entire community is legendary, and we believe that we live our mission statement every day.

We are proud of the fact that each student in our school district is treated fairly and consistently. Our staff demands the very best from everyone, utilizing diverse teaching strategies that fit every student’s learning style. We understand that every student is different and we respect and encourage his or her individual diversity.

On this website you may visit each building, find out about our working strategic plan, and see students involved in classroom activities. Each month, our district newsletter is printed for your perusal. Our website is just another way that we try to keep everyone informed.

I encourage you to call or e-mail me with your thoughts about this site or to gain additional information about the Jefferson Schools. I have an “open door” policy and welcome your visit at any time.

Enjoy your time on our website and thank you for your visit.
