As you sign up for Parent-Teacher Conferences, you may choose to meet with your student’s homeroom/advisory teacher or select a specific subject-area teacher based on the information you would like to discuss.
If you have a specific question or concern about a particular subject, we encourage you to select that teacher. For example, if you have no concerns about math but would like to learn more about your student’s progress in English Language Arts, you may choose to meet with their ELA teacher. If you do not have a specific concern or subject area you would like to address, you may choose to meet with your student’s homeroom/advisory teacher.
Important Reminder: All conferences at JAMS will be student-led. Students are expected to attend their conference and will have an active role in sharing their learning, progress, and goals with their families. Please keep this in mind when selecting your conference time.

We are so grateful to have the BEST custodial staff!
It's October! Have a wonderful weekend!
They did it again! Mrs. Jakobitz's kindergartners filled in their chart each time a student got a 100% on an iReady lesson. They got some alphabet cookies to celebrate! They are working hard at learning!
Please see the attached Standard Response Protocol our district will be using to protect the safety of our students. This protocol has been adopted from the "I Love You Guys" Foundation. Having a common language is essential in keeping our students safe!
We need a basketball 🏀 coach asap!
What an amazing week “traveling” to the Dominican Republic! 🇩🇴❤️💙
We were so lucky to have Dr. Rodriguez and Mr. Aneury visit us and share about life and culture in the Dominican Republic. They brought so many authentic items for the kids to see, touch, and explore, along with real photos and stories. Our second graders had LOTS of great questions!
One of our favorite activities was learning about the traditional Dominican faceless dolls, or muñecas sin rostro. The dolls are made without facial features and have become a beautiful symbol of Dominican culture and the diverse heritage of its people. Each student even got to create their own faceless doll!
And, of course, we had to experience a little Dominican flavor too! Mr. Aneury brought us choco, a delicious Dominican chocolate drink, for everyone to try. ☕️🍫
We are so grateful to our special guests for bringing the Dominican Republic into our classroom and giving our students such a meaningful, hands-on experience. Our passports are stamped and we can’t wait to see where we travel next! 🌎✈️
Have a wonderful weekend!
The Central School District 104 family is praying for those impacted in yesterday's fatal accident.
Mrs. Jakobitz's class enjoyed meeting JuJube and Officer Mojzis with the O'Fallon PD today! This was therapy for both the dogs and the students and they loved it!
🇲🇽 Second grade’s second passport stop was Mexico during the week of Mexico's Independence Day! 🌎✈️
We explored Mexican culture through food, communities, and art! Each kiddo even created their own Frida Kahlo-inspired self-portrait, complete with Frida’s famous bushy eyebrows! What amazing artists they are!
Our passports are ready, and they can’t wait to see where we’re headed! Next stop, 🇩🇴 Dominican Republic!
Enjoy your weekend!
Our ESL class celebrated Mexican Independence Day today! Viva Mexico!🇲🇽
This morning the Rotary Club of O'Fallon Sunshine recognized our new teachers with a generous donation to our staff. We are so grateful for their partnership!
Today is International Dot Day—a day inspired by the book The Dot and the simple, powerful message that one small mark can make a BIG difference. It reminds us that creativity, courage, and believing in ourselves can start with something as simple as making a dot. ✨We want to thank all of our staff for the mark they make everyday in the lives of our students!
At tonight's board meeting we recognized the August Superintendent Shout Outs DEES PK student Antonio De Avilla and JAMS 5th grader Jerome Rogers, III for being outstanding leaders in our schools!
Our second graders officially started their journey around the world, and we felt it was only fitting to make our first stop New York City! 🗽
Students learned about Ellis Island and thought about what they would pack in their suitcase if they were beginning a journey to a new home. Then, they pulled out their passports and received their very first stamp in NYC!
With Hispanic Heritage Month beginning, we can’t wait to see where our passports take us next!
Have a wonderful weekend!
Reminder, we have no school on Monday! Enjoy your Labor Day!
