Holiday Food Drive

Don't forget that non-perishable food items are still being collected for Holiday Baskets to be distributed through Arcata Presbyterian Church. Donations will be picked up on Friday, December 15, so be sure to have goods in by then. Thank you for your help in bringing holiday cheer to those in need!

Registration for Next Year

Believe it or not, it is time to register students for the 2018-2019 school year!!!  Our enrollment timeline has moved up a couple of months in order to be in line with the other schools in Humboldt County.  Students already attending Jacoby Creek School DO NOT need to register again.  This registration is for students NEW to our school. Those students attending Jacoby Creek School on an interdistrict transfer from another school district will need to apply for an interdistrict transfer again for next year.  I will be sending out detailed information about this process soon.  
Students that live in the Jacoby Creek School District boundaries are guaranteed enrollment at JCS for the 2018-2019 school year.  Even if you live in the district, please register your student early in order to help us prepare for next year.  
The Transitional Kindergarten/Kindergarten Preview Night is scheduled for Thursday, November 30 at 6:30 in the school library. This is an opportunity to meet the teachers and administration and to learn more about the TK/K programs at Jacoby Creek School. Mark your calendars if you have a student ready to attend Transitional Kindergarten or Kindergarten in the 2018-2019 school year.
Registration applications are available on our website and in the school office.
Sincerely,
Melanie Nannizzi
​Principal

School Garden Pumpkin and Winter Squash Donation Sale

Cinderella Pumpkins, Red Kuri Squash, Waltham Butternut Squash, and Sugar Dumpling Squash will all be available for donation sale tomorrow:  Wednesday, October 4th, from 2:20pm.
