The principal is responsive and the teachers are caring. We love the extracurricular activities offered at school and wish they were part of the curriculum. The school is all enclosed and safe. They really care about military families and make them feel extra welcome.

I know my child is in good hands here. He is excelling in math and English and I am happy with the student recognition program. I love the parent involvement of the PTA members and volunteers as well as the amazing faculty and staff who genuinely care about the safety and academic success of every child.

Students are taken care of here. At book sales older children are assigned to assist younger children. Children with special needs get the help and attention they need to achieve their academic goals. Older kids and younger kids are separated at recess to prevent bullying and unnecessary injury to younger children. There is so much ethnic diversity at Jones that there doesn't really feel like there are any minorities. Everyone is accepted from what I have seen.
