The lockers were selected due to their age, functionability, and wear and tear. The current lockers are too narrow for today's student. They receive heavy use and are falling into disrepair. The committee felt that replacing these with more current lockers was important for students and building. This will also brighten up a heavily trafficked area.

I (Superintendent Weatherwax), will be holding a bond FAQ at Jonesville High School next Tuesday, October 3rd at 5:30. All are welcome to come and ask the questions they have about this very important bond. Hope to see you there! Go Comets!!!
Bond Focus
Mark your calendars! Picture day is next Tuesday!
The bond focuses on 3 areas: Safety and Security, updated furniture/teaching technology for 21st century, and critical infrastructure repairs/renovations.
This is the entryway at Jonesville Middle School. A safe and secure entryway would place a wall just inside the entryway (there would be door access as well but locked). During school hours, a visitor would ring to get inside. They would be allowed in but then they would still be in a secure vestibule. They would then have to be let buzzed in through the office (adult) or the school (student). This adds another layer of security for our staff and students.
Schools around the country have gone to this model and our high school currently has it. We need this at the elementary and the middle school. Go Comets!
Here is an, understandable, summary of the November 7th bond. Please read!
