For families of students at Jenkins Elementary School: This morning shortly after school began, a school administrator found a BB gun in a bathroom on campus. The school enacted a lock down until the situation could be investigated. Putnam County Sheriff's Office deputies on scene determined there was no threat and the found BB gun was unloaded and inoperable. The lockdown was lifted and school has resumed as normal. Deputies and school staff are continuing to investigate, but at this time there is believed to be no threat to the campus, students, faculty or staff. A call was made earlier by school administrators to all Jenkins Elementary families immediately after the lockdown through our School Messenger system. If you have a student at Jenkins Elementary, and did not receive that call, please be sure that you update your contact information with the school. Thank you!

On Tuesday, September 7th, we will combine bus routes for the following schools: Interlachen Jr-Sr High, QI Roberts Jr-Sr High, Jenkins Elementary, Melrose Elementary, and Ochwilla Elementary Schools.
Please expect significant delays in pick up and drop off times. We appreciate families who choose to transport their own children, when possible. We recognize that this is an inconvenience for many families, and we thank you for your patience and understanding during these unprecedented times.
In an effort to keep our students and staff safe in environments where social distancing is difficult, we will require all students and staff to wear a mask when riding a school bus beginning Wednesday, September 1, 2021, until further notice. Thank you!
