We like to wish all JDMS Families a Happy Holidays and a Wonderful New Year. We need all students to clean out their lockers and take all of their belongings home over Winter Break. This will allow our custodial staff an opportunity to conduct a thorough deep cleaning of our school over the break. Thank you.
