Hello Patriots! The basketball tournament set for Monday has been moved to Thursday 2/5! Looking forward to seeing everyone there!

Reminder there is no basketball game tonight at TJ. Tournament begins Monday at home starting at 5. Let's go Patriots!

NTI DAY | Today, our teams spent the day evaluating road conditions and school campuses across the District. While many main roads remain in good shape, several side streets and neighborhood roadways are still icy.
These conditions have led us to utilize another Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI) day on Friday, January 30. Students should follow their school-specific NTI instructions. NTI days are recognized as standard instructional days and will not extend the school calendar.
All athletic and extracurricular activities are canceled for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

TECHNICAL ISSUE | We’re aware of a technical issue with the Parent Portal that is causing some 2026–27 school year enrollment information to display incorrectly. Our IT team is actively working to resolve the issue, and we anticipate it will be fixed by next week.
We’ll share an update once the issue is resolved. Thank you for your patience and understanding, and we apologize for any inconvenience.

❄ NTI DAYS | After evaluating road conditions throughout the community, Wednesday, Jan. 28 and Thursday, Jan. 29, 2026, will be Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI) Days for JCPS students and staff.
While our crews report that most main roads are in good shape, many side streets and neighborhood roads across the county remain hazardous. Due to these lingering conditions and low temperatures, we believe transitioning to NTI is the safest choice for our students and staff.
Students should follow their school’s established NTI protocols. NTI days are recognized as standard instructional days and will not extend the school calendar.
All after school athletic and extracurricular activities are canceled for Wednesday and Thursday. If there are any changes to the YMCA CEP program, families will be notified by YMCA CEP.
Thank you for your continued patience and flexibility as we navigate these winter conditions. Please stay warm and safe.

Please join us for TJMS International Night! March 4th from 5-7 at TJ!

Yesterday, 4 of our students represented TJ and our GT group at the Future City Competition. They presented their model and answered some tough questions from the judges. Our whole GT class worked so hard on these projects, and we were so proud of how they showed up for this competition.

Calling all Future Engineers!
Saturday, February 28, 2026 from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM.
Come explore! E-Day at the University of Kentucky Stanley and Karen Pigman College of Engineering is a self-paced open house experience. Guest are free to roam the engineering complex and discover what the world of engineering has to offer.
On May 26, 1921, the University of Kentucky held its first Engineers’ Day open house. The university dismissed classes at noon to allow students and people from the surrounding area to tour the college and see its equipment in action. E-Day at the University of Kentucky has become a tradition that grows stronger every year.
Approximately 3,000 people attend the on-campus event, which takes place at the end of Engineers’ Week in February. George Washington, whose birthday is February 22, was an engineer who surveyed, invented tools for his farm and supported the advancement of engineers. Thus, Engineers’ Week is always celebrated during the week of his birthday.
“Countless students have told me through the years that their first exposure to engineering occurred at UK's E-Day.” – Thomas Lester, dean of the UK College of Engineering for 22 years.
E-Day is sponsored by a coalition of more than 100 professional societies, major corporations and government agencies dedicated to promoting math and science literacy and ensuring a diverse and well-educated future engineering workforce.
E-Day comes at the end of the national Engineer's Week, which is organized by Discover Engineering.
30 years ago, DiscoverE was the first organization to recognize the need for engineering outreach when it called on engineers around the U.S. to work with young students for Engineers Week 1990. Since then tens of thousands of engineers have participated as role models and provided hands-on engineering experiences to millions of students. Their dual mission of celebrating the accomplishments of engineers and engaging K-12 students in engineering is made real by a robust coalition of activist partner organizations, volunteers, and educators.
