JRP is excited to announce that we will be able to provide school supplies for our students this year. The only items families must provide for students are a backpack and a lunchbox if your student will be packing their lunch.
Each grade-level has created a list of OPTIONAL supplies that can be purchased for the classroom.
We will also have some backpacks available if your student will need a backpack.

Which class will have the best attendance each week?


Kindergarten will join us next week during afternoon dismissal. Please see the attached flyer for important information about dismissal.


We will help our kindergarten and pre-K students learn their colors. If you are able, wear the color for the day that is listed on the chart!

For 2025-26, Hawkins County Schools will focus on positive attendance and its impact on student success, now and in the future. We want to partner with you to ensure your child is in school, learning what they need to thrive as adults. Chronically Absent is 10% or more days per school year (excused or unexcused). At 5 or more unexcused absences a meeting with school staff will be scheduled. Students have 5 days to turn in parent and doctor notes. Each student may have 6 parent notes and 10 doctor notes per year. Students with 10 unexcused absences in a row or a total of 15 unexcused absences will lose their driving privileges.
